Disability Mentor Pioneer
Senegal
Africa
Bring Hope to One of the Hardest-to-Reach Places on Earth
What if your skills could help open doors to the gospel where few have ever heard it?
Across West Africa, the Fulani people stretch from country to country, carrying a rich history, strong cultural identity, and deep Islamic faith. While millions remain unreached, a small and growing number are beginning to follow Jesus.
We're looking for people who are ready to serve in a challenging but meaningful environment, building relationships with families impacted by disability and helping create pathways for support, care, and community.
This is not a typical mission opportunity. It's a chance to serve alongside a pioneering team using compassionate care as a platform for sharing the hope of Christ among one of the world's largest unreached people groups.
What You'll Do:
- Build meaningful relationships with families impacted by disability
- Support the development of disability care and family support networks
- Help create training and outreach opportunities for caregivers and communities
- Serve alongside experienced workers already engaged in local ministry
- Learn language and culture while living among the people you serve
- Use practical compassion to demonstrate the love of Christ
Why It Matters
Many families in this region have little to no access to disability resources, education, or support services. Children and adults with disabilities are often overlooked, while their families face significant challenges with limited assistance.
By helping strengthen care and support systems, you'll serve some of the most vulnerable people in the region while creating opportunities for lasting gospel relationships.
Who We're Looking For
People who are:
- Relational
- Adaptable
- Self-motivated
- Resilient
- Servant-hearted
- Cross-culturally minded
- Experience with disabilities, education, therapy, healthcare, social work, community development, or family ministry is helpful but not required.
- Associates or Bachelor's degree in any field
This Opportunity Is For You If...
You care deeply about people.
You're willing to step outside your comfort zone.
You want your faith to make a tangible difference.
You believe that every person is created in God's image and deserves dignity, hope, and the opportunity to hear the gospel.
Join a team seeking to bring practical care and eternal hope to families in one of the least-reached regions of the world.

Uganda
Africa
Help Others Grow in Their Faith
What if your next season of life helped equip believers with God's Word?
In Uganda, many pastors and church leaders have limited access to biblical training, yet there is a deep hunger to study Scripture and grow in faith.
We're looking for men with a strong biblical foundation and a heart for discipleship to come alongside local believers and invest in spiritual growth.

- Lead Bible studies that are in high demand
- Disciple and encourage Ugandan believers
- Help others develop a deeper understanding of Scripture
- Build meaningful relationships within local communities
- Support local churches and faith leaders
- Serve as part of a Christ-centered team
Who we're looking for:
- Men with a solid knowledge of the Bible
- Passionate disciple-makers
- Servant leaders who value relationship and mentorship
- Individuals eager to learn from and serve alongside local believers
This isn't about being the expert in the room. It's about faithfully sharing God's Word, investing in people, and helping others grow as disciples of Christ.
Available to men.

Through a series of events, God redirected our steps to Uganda in 2015 and Mesa Global was there walking beside us all the way. This is now our ninth year here in Uganda and we simply couldn't do it without the support of a strong sending organization. God's grace and Mesa Global have helped us build endurance and perseverance to face the rigors of serving cross-culturally.

God used many people to help me through hard times; now I find myself a friend to many Afghan refugee women who have suffered enormous losses. I want to share with them our Heavenly Father's incredible compassion and comfort and the hope of eternal life!

I've had the incredible privilege to serve refugees in Phoenix from multiple countries and it has been incredible to build friendships with so many families. I had the opportunity to visit the family of a close refugee friend while in Malaysia. It really grew my perspective of how much God can use friendships to create bridges and connections all around the world. It also taught me that the work God is doing among refugees in Phoenix not only impacts families in Phoenix, but it can impact families globally.

Mesa Global provided invaluable support and wisdom during our ministry transitions, allowing us to join God strategically where He is at work. Their emphasis on partnership, both with local ministries and other organizations, has expanded our impact and exemplified God's people working together for His purposes.

Mesa Global's prioritization of holistic care has been a significant part of my personal and professional growth with Mesa Interns - Avance España. It’s one thing to read Emotionally Healthy Spirituality; it’s another to see your mentors and colleagues embody these holistic practices in their own lives; and yet another to receive their accompaniment as you develop these practices yourself and with locals.

I moved to Asia at the age of 47 and started studying one of the world's most difficult languages. The investments people made to send me to that big country are now rippling throughout multiple generations, families, and businesses because of the time invested in building relationships centered on Christ and his Kingdom.

Joining Mesa Global has been a great experience. They respond within hours of sending an email! They are flexible when it comes to unique individual requirements! Mesa Global also wants to make sure that their missionaries are well equipped before going to the field and provide a training for a month and a half in North Carolina. After completing the training and funding process, Mesa Global is quick to send their missionaries to the field, well prepared for what's ahead!

Throughout our 40 years of service in Senegal, 35 of them with Mesa Global, France-Lise and I have been richly blessed by the spirit of collaboration that has characterized our mission since its inception. This has enabled us, among other things, to contribute to the establishment of a holistic church-planting organization in Muslim environments in Senegal. This national organization worked with local churches of different Christian denominations, in partnership with other churches and international organizations, to reach unreached areas of Senegal.
French Speaking Africa / France
Over the years, I've been allowed to live and serve in drastically different contexts and countries, deeply experience the richness of different views and cultures, and see the gospel at work. In each place, God has graciously provided Mesa Global leadership that has guided, mentored, and helped me thrive in an environment where I can not only discover my own gifts but bring them to the table and see them used to glorify God's name.
