You will often be the first Christian they’ve met even if they’ve lived here a long time. Whether full-time or volunteer, you will be trained, coached, and sent to reproduce disciples among the Muslim diaspora—right here in Tampa Bay. This position requires raising support.

Tampa Bay: A Strategic City
Tampa Bay is uniquely positioned as a global crossroads where the Muslim world has come to our backyard. With over a dozen mosques, halal markets, and university students from Muslim-majority nations, the opportunity is immense. Many have never met a follower of Jesus. Here, we can prayerfully engage the unreached through everyday relationships, multiplying disciples and churches among Muslims without leaving the city. In this strategic moment, we are asking God to raise up laborers who will abide, love boldly, and proclaim Christ among those who have never heard.
