Ministry Opportunites

For missionaries, in the midst of transitions, it can be confusing and met with a lot of unanswered questions- work? house? school? etc. You still have a passion/interest for the global work God is doing around the world and want to continue to make an impact in the world of missions.

At CIT we understand that.

All of our training staff and many of our support staff have served overseas. If you feel that God may be prompting you to continue to use your gifts to prepare and support missionaries around the globe then perhaps there is a stateside role for you at CIT.

Residential Training Staff

At CIT, training is more than a talking head who dispenses information. Our trainers, called facilitators, are meaningfully involved with participants every step of the way through adult learning principles. We are looking for both female and male facilitators who have had field experience and have processed that experience well. Once approved, facilitators go through training to ensure that they are comfortable and competent with CIT’s training content. These facilitators need to relocate to CIT in the foothills of the Blue Ridge mountains as fulltime workers and require self-support.

Each of our facilitating staff are with or seconded from various mission agencies. That means they are able to remain connected to the agency with whom they served overseas and are effectively on loan to CIT. In some situations, we have added staff who changed agencies so that they would be able to serve at CIT.

Support Staff

CIT’s support staff are top notch. Support areas include office, IT, food service, housing, facilities maintenance, youth and childcare workers, audio-video production, and public relations. Generally, we prefer these positions to have self-support, but a few positions are paid by CIT. These positions are also open to seconded individuals.

CIT Global (Self-Support Required)

Regional Coordinators:
