The Presbyterian Church’s Global Mission is collaborating with Uniting World (of the Uniting Church in Australia) ‘joining together in mission’ and ‘connecting communities for life.’ In particular UnitingWorld’s Experience programme is open to participants from New Zealand.
Through our agreement with Uniting World, the Presbyterian Church is now able each year to offer over 100 volunteer Experience Placements with churches throughout Africa, Asia and the Pacific. These placements aim to strengthen links between our partner Churches while transforming the lives of those trapped in poverty.
Right now, volunteers are giving their time, energy, and skills to serve on behalf of both the Presbyterian and Uniting Churches. All placements are at the specific request of our international Church Partners. We work with our overseas partner churches, looking at their requirements to find suitable volunteers.
You may be a teacher, a mechanic or a farmer. You may be a specialist in IT, business administration, youth work or public health. We need people who want to share the hope of Christ and learn more of what He is doing in His world. Our primary need is for people who will live in communities, sharing lives in a real, day-to-day way.
Experience programme is committed to a high standard of ethics and submits to all required checks for volunteers relating to child safe practices.
