Long Term

The Lord wants to use each of us in the place where we are needed most, the place where our particular experience, gifts and skills are needed most. With all factors being equal, that place is going to be where the need is greatest, but where the workers are fewest.
Interserve are consciously working in areas of the world where Christ is least known. Will you be one of the many who are responding to go and serve among those peoples? These people have, for centuries, not even known what the gospel of Jesus Christ is, let alone had the opportunity to believe it for themselves.
Our motto in Interserve is "Servants for the Hard Places," this is meant to capture our sense of calling to go to these people groups that have had least exposure to the gospel. In order to serve these various Muslim, Hindu, and Buddhist peoples we need Christian professionals who understand how to integrate their work and faith and incarnate the love of God in Christ through everyday relationships both vocationally and socially.
The core of our work is our long term programme. We believe that serving people and establishing genuine, lasting relationships is the best way to model the love of Christ, but this takes time. Usually partners spend 2-3 years overseas before returning for 4-6 months of Home Assignment, when they will spend time with supporters. After this time partners have the option to return for a further 2-3 years of service or longer. Time overseas includes an initial period of language and cultural study.

It is our belief in Interserve that every type of work is mission if it is done with the aim of serving God and seeing His kingdom built. Kingdom professionals can use practically any professional qualifications and skills to serve with Interserve, so whatever your job God can use it at home or overseas. Interserve partners are working in a huge range of professions including those listed below. If we have no Partners doing your job it is almost certainly because we have not been able to recruit people with your expertise…
Education
Engineering (civil, electrical, etc.)
Law
Wildlife and Environmental conservation
International/Community Development
Youth and children’s work
Medical (doctors, nurses, dentists, optometrists therapists, etc.)

Our partners are expected to raise all their financial and prayer support we do not offer salaried positions. However, Interserve Ireland seeks to encourage and assist our partners as they raise their support team of individuals and fellowships who the Lord brings together around His calling to serve in the Hard Places.
