WEC Africa

We are one of many WEC International Support Branches worldwide, partnering with churches across Africa to mobilize African missionaries to serve among unreached peoples alongside WEC teams around the globe.

OUR VISION

Partnering with the Church in Africa in sending cross-cultural workers to make disciples of Christ amongst the unreached in the region and beyond.

OUR GOAL

Our goal is to have well-trained, spirit-filled African cross-cultural workers who will ‘give it all for Jesus’ being sent out to the least reached globally.

“If Jesus Christ be God and died for me, then no sacrifice can be too great for me to make for Him.”

Got any questions?

We've got answers!

Each missionary organization has its own identity, and none is necessarily better than another. What truly matters is finding a mission that aligns with your calling, your values, and the purpose God has placed in your heart.

At WEC, our focus is to bring the gospel to places where it has not yet been proclaimed. Everything we do, whether through short-term or long-term ministries, is aimed at seeing Christ-centered communities emerge among unreached peoples.

No matter how long you serve or what gifts, skills, and experiences you bring, your involvement will be part of a greater vision: to see disciples of Jesus raised up in places where the gospel is still unknown. That might mean going to remote regions, facing cultural challenges, or walking alongside local churches in difficult contexts.

Through partnerships with African churches, we seek to reach these hearts with the hope of Christ.

Is God calling you to be part of this mission?

Currently, we have around 400 open opportunities to serve among unreached peoples in roles ranging from education to healthcare and community development. Visit our opportunities page to discover how you can get involved and make a difference among unreached peoples.

Yes. You must be a born-again Christian with an active and growing relationship with Jesus Christ, and affirm WEC’s statement of faith. WEC is an evangelical Christian mission agency partnering with the African church to reach unreached peoples with the good news of Jesus and to help develop leaders for the rapidly growing church.

Definitely. We love walking alongside people who are exploring mission. If you’re interested in serving among unreached people, we’d be glad to help you access information, match your skills and interests with opportunities, and encourage you in your journey. We’re here to support you every step of the way, just reach out!

About the CO (Candidate Orientation)

The CO is a program whose purpose is to foster connection between the candidate and WEC, strengthen mutual fellowship and trust, and confirm the candidate’s direction toward cross-cultural missions.

The key qualification is being a committed disciple of Jesus Christ, someone who knows Him as Lord and Savior and actively shares their faith. We expect a basic level of biblical understanding and, together with your church, will support you in any necessary training. Formal and professional qualifications vary by role and country. Many nations today require a university degree or equivalent for work permit purposes.

The easiest way is to fill out the contact form on our website. Once we receive your submission, we’ll get in touch to schedule a time to talk together about how the Lord is leading you.
