International Short-Term Volunteers
As a way of realizing our love for the whole Body of Christ, partnership is how we do mission. The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) is but part of that body, and we know that our work should be done in a way that respects our brothers and sisters in other parts of the world. We do that by listening to what they have to say. The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) wants to help connect you with our partners around the world. We want you to experience the power of Christ's love as exemplified in the connectional church. We are called to go out into the world to be examples of Christ's love. Come and be a part of the Body of Christ by doing mission in partnership with other Christians around the world.

The International Short-Term Volunteer Program links qualified Presbyterians to short-term volunteer positions identified by our partners around the world. Volunteers work in a specific place overseas, fulfilling a specific need and witnessing to others as a Christian, for a period of 3 weeks to 11 months.

If you are interested in serving as a volunteer please contact Shannon Langley, coordinator of the Direct Mission Involvement office.

Other international volunteer opportunities are available through the PC(USA)'s Mission Service Recruitment Office.
