Mobilization Catalyst (Recruitment)

Global City Mission Initiative (GCMI) is seeking regional mobilization catalysts. Global City Mission is working to enable disciple-making initiatives in global cities around the world starting in North America. In order to effectively advance disciple-making in urban settings, we focus on these three areas of ministry: Sending missionaries doing life-on-life evangelism & planting faith communities in global cities. Training & coaching local believers to reach their communities with the gospel of Christ providing churches with equipping & training to mobilize their members to impact their city. As a mobilizer, you are working to help churches to equip their members and to help individuals find their mission. Mobilization involves a multi-layered strategy. It includes identifying candidates as potential missionary catalysts or interns, activating individual believers to become disciple-makers in their own communities, and connecting with churches for evangelism training to mobilize their members in their city. Mobilizers are essentially those agents serving to activate Jesus’ followers into the harvest as disciple-makers. Mobilization involves a multi-layered strategy to advance disciple-making.
