Community Development Ministries

We believe in seeking the welfare of the cities — or villages — where we’ve been sent. When a woman earns extra income for her family by sewing bags in a microenterprise, or when children play on a soccer field built on an abandoned lot, the entire community benefits. When we seek the welfare of our cities, we are tangibly loving our neighbors and proclaiming the importance of community in discipleship. TEAM community development endeavors range from helping Japanese communities rebuild from multiple disasters, to training community workers in the Philippines, to managing community centers in Latin America and Asia. We focus on projects that are sustainable and locally appropriate.

  • Exhibits a dynamically creative and entrepreneurial spirit 
  • Deep heart for meeting complex physical and spiritual needs 
  • Winsome ability to initiate and maintain relationships  
  • Seeks to cultivate gospel community and invite others in
