In your heart, if there’s more to missions than your recent short-term missions trip, God may be calling you to follow Him and to get more involved in missions and evangelism.
Mission Service Corps (MSC) could be just the avenue for you to do that. MSC missionaries are self-funded or raise their own support, serve for at least two years and work full or part-time - at least 20 hours each week - in an approved ministry of the Baptist State Convention and the North American Mission Board.
MSC missionaries serve in hundreds of niche ministries throughout the marketplace, focusing on unreached populations. They minister cross-generationally to ethnic groups and work in ministries such as inner city, multi-family housing, sports & recreation, mentoring, tutoring, resorts, truck stops, RV parks, seaports, nursing homes and more.
MSC missionaries often assist churches and associations to reach populations without Christ and they do this through outreach, evangelism, mobilizing, strengthening and specialized ministries focused on reaching the lost.
In addition to a passion for missions, MSC missionaries must be at least 18 years old, have adequate skills and gifts for their ministry and be recommended by their cooperating SBC church.
Simply put, MSC missionaries reach the lost, where they are. That’s why one MSC missionary hitchhikes up and down California expressways every day, and why another regularly witnesses in almost 30 North Carolina nursing homes, and why another shares Christ through her equestrian ministry in South Carolina. Other MSC missionaries share Christ while hunting, fishing, skateboarding, biking, surfing Internet chat rooms or surfing real waves - wherever the lost are, MSC missionaries won’t be far away.
Only God knows what the next MSC ministry will be.
Could it be you He has called?
