Working Visitors

Working Visitors are qualified personnel who give between one month and a year to fill specific needs in medical, technical and support roles in the mission.

This programme not only gives those interested in missions a means to experience it first hand, but also creates an outlet for those wanting to use their professional skills in order to help out our mission for short periods of time. The work opportunities are diverse: community development, radio programming, hospital surgery, marketing, physiotherapy, and much more. The possibilities are endless.

Being a Working Visitor could form your practical placement as part of a Bible college or university course. For specific information on medical electives, click here .
