About the Area and Responsibilities of a Bloomington Ministry Leader
Bloomington, IN is an incredibly strategic spot to reach international college students, and through them, the world. With a recent average of over 5,700 international students at Indiana University's flagship campus in Bloomington, there's a critical mass of people from all over the world, but not a critical mass of Christ-centered churches and ministries reaching them. This position is part of the Bloomington ministry team and requires the candidate to live near the campus on which they will be serving.
The Bloomington Ministry Leader will establish a ministry location by building relationships with university staff, church partners, and volunteers. The Bloomington Ministry Leader will engage in personal ministry as well as mobilize others to host Bible studies, plan cultural events, and share the Gospel. It is vital that the Bloomington Ministry Leader establish IFI as a recognized student org, maintain good relationships with the campus, and maintain financial and prayer support for the budgeted needs of the role.
