This program is designed for bi-vocational, tentmakers, or Business as Mission professionals that want to gain cross-cultural CPM experience.
4) Missio Nexus Mission Leaders Conference to Offer Nine Tracks
Mission Nexus’ “Mission Leaders Conference 2018” is offering nine strategic workshop tracks. Though your role, position, or interest may fit a particular track you are not locked into attending only that one. (We love it when people are flexible. : ) ) You can focus on Executive Leadership, Human Resources, Mobilization, Global Strategies, Member Health, Short-Term Missions, Globally Engaged Churches, Mission Finance and Administration, and, appropriately enough, Training. There are descriptions of these and other offerings at…

5) Become a MailChimp Master with These 20 Free Video Tutorials
This free online course in Christian Ministry Academy will give you insights on how to easily use MailChimp to inform your supporting community. Whether you are a missionary or are on the leadership team of a church or a ministry, you need an email broadcasting service that takes care of the complicated stuff of communicating with your ministry stakeholders. CMA also provides free social media management resources to ministry workers.
6) Want to Teach School in Kosova This Fall and Be Paid For It?
Now you can. Classes are in English. And it’s a paid gig. They need teachers for 4th grade, 5th grade, middle school social studies, high school English, and HS Science. They have the curriculum and textbooks available for each subject. You need a bachelor degree in the subject you would be teaching, but not necessarily a teaching certificate (though it is welcome). They provide one round-trip airfare to Kosova and a stipend of 1000E per month (roughly $1200 per month). School beings on September 3, 2018 and ends the end of June, 2019. Questions? Email John

You could start with the $35 course. It’s ideal for those participating in church and short-term mission trips, less experienced cross-cultural workers, and for those working long-term in areas of moderate risk. (Thanks to John, the Training Manager, for all the great work on these!)
9) How Do We Sustain Peace?
Curious as to what might bring peace to the part of the troubled world that you love? Brainstorm, pray, and peruse the links and themes that Kelly and Michèle O’Donnell provided in their May research on Peace Psychology.
