Training Opportunities

DisTincT - DiscipleshipTrainingTeam (Sweden)

Are you willing to share Christ with others as you live among them?
Consider joining DisTincT and being a part of a multicultural outreach team.
DisTincT is OM Sweden’s Discipleship Training Team.  OM Sweden’s mission is to motivate, equip and send people to transform lives and communities in Sweden and the world. 

Sweden is one of the most secular countries in the world.  Religion has little or no influence on the daily life of the average Swede and how they relate to the world around them. However, recent trends seem to show that Swedes are again seeking for some sort of spirituality.

After the first 6 months there will be opportunities to continue with the outreach teams, work together with the office team, or assist a local church as you are led by God.  It is our desire to ensure that all our staff have continued training as they continue their time with us.
Commitment length: 6 to 12 months


Wed 01 Aug 2012

6-12 months (full time)

For the first 6 months:

  • Must be at least 18 years old
  • Should be comfortable conversing in, reading and receiving teaching in English. 
  • Willingness to live with an international team in a multicultural neighbourhood.
  • Willingness to learn basic Swedish.

All jobs/opportunities on this site are unsalaried. Most people joining OM have to raise financial support to cover their living expenses, usually through gifts from home churches and other supporters.
