The NEXT move is yours!
Crosslinks is an international mission agency with its roots in the Bible, and its principal sphere of operations is in the worldwide Anglican Communion.
Through their NEXT programme, Crosslinks provides personalised opportunities for volunteers aged 30 and over to use their professional skills, life experience and gifts in new and exciting ways. By sharing skills and the love of God with others, volunteers can support the worldwide church in making a very real difference to the communities they serve.
A NEXT placement will immerse you in cross-cultural life, working as an ambassador of Christ alongside an established mission or project partner. It will enable you to see what God is doing in other parts of the world… and may provide a significant pointer to what He has next for your own life.
Whether you are thinking about a career break or a sabbatical from work, are retired or just have holiday time to offer, the NEXT programme could be for you!
NEXT opportunities range from working with disabled or vulnerable children to teaching adults English, business skills or the Bible; from administration, social or medical work to involvement in construction, maintenance or IT. Whatever your skill, availability and interest, we’ll do our best to find an opportunity that is right for you.
Placements vary in length from two weeks to two years, and costs vary according to the country of location and duration of the assignment.
For more information see www.crosslinks.org.uk or write to Crosslinks at: 251 Lewisham Way, London SE4 1XF and request a copy of their NEXT brochure.You can also talk to the NEXT coordinator by telephoning 0208 6916111.
