Digital Mission Catalyst

Do you see yourself reaching a unreached people group, affinity group, or other community? Can you imagine facilitating bible discovery discussions with unbelievers? Are you interested in being part of a missionary network? Consider serving as a Digital Mission Catalyst online where God has already positioned you.

Global City Mission Initiative (GCMI) is a disciple-making ministry serving in internationally diverse metropolitan areas.  We are making disciples at the world’s crossroads.

Vision: To see disciple-making initiatives in strategic global cities around the world starting in North America.

Role Description
The Mission Catalyst is the missionary worker within Global City.  As missionaries, you will share the gospel, develop evangelistic friendships, plant discipleship communities (ie., house churches, discovery groups), and facilitate disciple making. You are meeting people where are in life and representing Jesus in diverse metropolitan areas, including the online spaces we live, work, and play in.

• Self-initiate ethnographic learning and discovering strategic inroads into specific cultural context(s).
• Intentionally & personally initiate cross-cultural evangelism and build evangelistic friendships.
• Apply multiplication strategies, planting discovery groups & simple church communities, forming disciples who in turn disciple others, and developing indigenous leadership.  
• Apply contextual, incarnational approaches to disciple-making, planting, & mulitplying communities of faith.
• Be attentive to opportunities for evangelistic engagement or leadership development in the homelands of international friends through relational flows from global cities.   
• Strategy may include training & mobilizing believers within their existing communities. 
• As a member of a missionary network, participate in Global City activities & communications.   
• Share monthly ministry updates and participate in annual review.  
• Communicate potential ministry partnership or mobilization opportunities with mobilization leadership. 

Qualities & Characteristics

• Mission Catalysts should be committed to prayer and to their own spiritual health. 
• Mission Catalysts practice self-leadership. While collaborating through intermittent interactions, you should be self-initiating and self-managing in day-to-day ministry.  
• Mission Catalysts should be learners. GCMI will provide training & guidance and encourages additional outside learning appropriate to your skills and context.
• Mission Catalysts should have alignment with the Global City’s Philosophy of Ministry. 
• Each team member participates in a minimal team contribution.  

Note:  As a mission organization, Global City invites both fully-funded and bivocational missionaries to apply. Mission Catalysts will raise financial partners if planning to serve in a full-time capacity. 

Cities

We currently have team members in Philadelphia, Tampa, Phoenix, Orlando, Oklahoma City, Atlanta, as well as other metro areas. There is a need for additional Mission Catalysts in these cities. Digital Mission Catalysts will be primarily focused on the digital communities they create and inhabit.
