Is the Lord leading you to do something new?
Is He calling you to something outside the box of "traditional" missionary service?
Thank you for your interest in joining us in the great adventure of following Jesus and expanding His Kingdom. Our vision for Global Service Associates is to empower servant leaders to pursue his or her God-given mission. This is a place for men and women who have a vision stuck in their “gut” that they simply must move forward on. If you are looking for someone to tell you what to do next, this is not the organization for you. We provide a simple ministry platform and it’s up to you to serve Jesus. We desire to tap into the power of leaders unencumbered to pursue their mission, in their own way, in their time while bonded in community with other servant-leaders.
The Order of Global Servants is for Spirit-Filled followers of Jesus who are on a mission, a mission to expand the Kingdom. We commission members to plant churches in Russia, to pastor local congregations, to lead non-profits to serve the poor, to send students or faculty overseas on mission projects- the shared bond is being “on a mission.” Our mission field may be local but our scope is global. Now that we’re in the 21st century, we want to create a new kind of mission organization that is based on the first-century church model of missions. Our logo is a symbol of the dawn of a new day around the world. We will give you access to a financial system to support you in your mission, leadership connections to engage with, and a community of like-minded servants with which you can share life.
