Film Ministry

In northern Ivory Coast less than 1% of the people are believers. Join WorldVenture and the national church desires in reaching out to the population through film.

REQUIREMENTS:
Skill in producing, using, or collecting films for ministry. Desire to learn new methods to reach people without Christ and train believers through film to do the same. Cooperative, dependable, industrious, adaptable, with stamina, having solid prayer support base. Also appreciated are mature believers, interested and experienced in local church ministry.
RESPONSIBILITIES:
Participate in and train nationals in film/video ministry. Participate in local churches to encourage them in outreach and ministry. Make and distribute media. Maintain your personal spiritual disciplines. Pray for the people and ministry. Participate in team and field activities.
LANGUAGE NEEDS:
French learned in France or Quebec Dioula or a Senoufo language learned in Ivory Coast
LANGUAGE USED:
French and Dioula or Senoufo
LIVING ENVIRONMENT:
Live on the former ICA (International Christian Academy) Campus or other mission compound. As peace comes one might live in town. Northern Ivory Coast is generally hot and dry or hot and humid depending on the rains. Supplies are somewhat difficult to get but not impossible. Roads, phones, internet and electricity exist especially in cities but services may be sporatic.
WORKING ENVIRONMENT:
Very few missionaries and few westerners because of the conflict that has gone on in the country. We believe now is the time for people to begin training for ministry in northern Ivory Coast. In a worst case situation of continuing conflict you could use the same languages to serve with similar skills in neighboring countries. Work with Rod and Angelika Ragsdale who are passionate and very skilled at outreach and have encouraged the film ministry. You would learn tons from them and gain from their experience. They want people to join with them in their ministry. The WorldVenture related team in Cote dIvoire is becoming multi-national. In the future it is possible that team meetings will be conducted in French, the language of CI of international exchange.
