Start With a Trip. See Where It Takes You.

GLS short-term opportunities let you serve with your skills, meet bi-vocational missionaries on the ground, and experience firsthand what missional living actually looks like. 

WHY IT MATTERS?

The Field Needs Professionals. Your career Open Doors No Visa Can.

The cities that have not been reached by the gospel are not looking for missionaries — they are looking for engineers, educators, healthcare professionals, and healthcare and business professionals.. A short-term trip with GLS shows you how your profession becomes the key to long-term residency, meaningful relationships with local colleagues, and a presence that lasts.

Where Can You Serve?

Match your skills to a real need on the ground.

Professionals serving in East Asia through education, business, and community development opportunities

East Asia

90% of the population has yet to be reached by the gospel--a strategic bloc given its global influence. Professionals, especially credentialled and experienced educators, still have opportunity to reach the next generation.

Central Asia

Over 95% of the population has not been reached by the gospel. Begin with a 7–10 day vision trip to explore how your skills and experience could serve alongside local teams in Central Asia.

What matters most is your skill, your openness, and a genuine desire to serve. Contact GLS and we will help you find the right fit.

  • Costs vary by program and duration. Contact GLS and we will walk you through the details for your specific opportunity.

  • Every GLS trip includes a debrief to help you process what you experienced and discern what comes next — whether that means returning to the field, exploring long-term deployment, or simply going deeper in your understanding of globalocal missions.
