Ministry Opportunities

CAMPING

Each of the four camps needs a large number of volunteers during the Summer. The greatest need is for mature cabin leaders, Program directors and waterfront directors are also needed. Openings exist for nurses, cooks and handy men. If you have an interest in camping, consider CSSM's ministry opportunities.

VBS - VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL

Each summer one or more teams are sent out to local hes to assist them in conducting their VBS program. Generally the teams go to churches in smaller communities where they do not have the personnel resources to hold a VBS or to give their few teachers a much deserved break. This is an exciting outreach, where you can feel you are having an impact on young lives.

A VBS is also a means of reaching into neighbourhoods where children may not have access to a church VBS or residential Bible Camp ministry. These VBS ministries are more pioneering in nature and may involve taking the gospel to areas that have never heard or have been without a gospel witness for decades.

We are presently putting together our teams for the 2004 summer mininstry.

LOCAL CHURCH MINISTRIES

Beginning with an itinerant outreach to an area, CSSM seeks opportunities to sow the Seed of Gods Word through children's and youth ministries as well as ministering to the adult population. This can result in the drawing together of believers to form a new congregation. Several areas now exist where one or more couples could be involved.

ITINERANT MINISTERS NEEDED

Rather than focusing on just one town, village or hamlet, the itinerant evangelist covers a district. Reaching out through home visitation and conducting Bible studies, Bible Clubs, Youth meetings, etc. on a regular basis at various locations in order to sow the Seed of Gods Word through children's and youth ministries as well as ministering to the adult population. This can result in the drawing together of believers to form a new congregation. Several areas now exist where one or more couples could be involved in this full-time, New Testament ministry.

BIBLE CLUB MINISTRY

There are many places well suited to a Bible Club ministry. Often homes in urban areas are open to having a weekday club for neighbourhood children. In certain areas, particularly in Nova Scotia, it is still possible to teach a Bible Class in the public school. The Bible Club may be a part of the follow-up ministry of a Bible Camp, new contact evangelism, or a combination of both. This is an opportunity to get into an area where the truth of God's Word needs to be shared and is often well received by the individuals. Do you feel called to be a part of camp ministry but also teach children the Word of God on a regular basis? Maybe this is the ministry for you.

NEWFOUNDLAND MINISTRY

CSSM workers went to Newfoundland over 50 years ago and taught the Bible in a number of communities. Throughout the two decades following the initial outreach several missionaries served there. Now it is time to renew our commitment to take the Word of God to the people of Newfoundland. Itinerant Ministry and Church Planting ministry opportunities are ready to be re-established in communities where CSSM is still recognized as well as in new communities.
We are presently forming a team to minister on the Northern Peninsula for the summer of 2004.
