Dallas/Fort Worth is a significant US destination for refugees, international students, and economic immigrants, many of which are from unreached locations. Join our teams making disciples among these populations in DFW while gaining a better understanding of your unique God-given calling and developing skills for effective cross-cultural ministry. Explore our opportunities as a potential next step in your disciple-making journey.
Missional Learning Team
The Missional Learning Team is an eight to fifteen-week experiential training program. It is designed to help obedient followers of Jesus establish a personal ministry reaching for the unreached while obtaining greater clarity regarding God’s plan for their life. Learn in a team environment from experienced disciple-makers. We combine prayer, learning, team dynamics and practical ministry among the unreached. Each week contains both mission and learning elements as we put into practice everything we learn with accountability from the team.
Active Locations: We currently have teams in Fort Worth, Dallas, Richardson, Plano and Grand Prairie with more coming soon in places like Irving.
Internships
Forefront’s internships are a great fit during a college summer, a training season while preparing for the field, and much more! Become competent in cross-cultural disciple-making and the ability to start multiplying Discovery Bible Studies in any future environment. Make a significant contribution to the local disciple-making team’s goals through service, outreach and mobilization. Develop a better understanding of the connection between your personal giftings and global missions. Cultivate specific skill sets through areas of focus and completing a comprehensive personal development plan.
Long-Term Efforts
All Forefront Experience activity focuses on long-term impact both locally and globally often through teams and coaching/mentoring relationships. We build ongoing disciple-making teams focused on specific populations that lack sufficient Christian witness. Our teams focus on finding a person of peace or existing believers among the people group and equipping them to reach the rest of their sphere of influence. We hope to see discipleship and teams that multiply locally and globally to reach the unreached in our cities and abroad.
Internationals in DFW
Refugees: The refugees we serve in Dallas are from places like Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Somalia, Iran, Burma, and Bhutan. Some of the most vulnerable and desperate people on the planet are refugees who eventually get resettled in the states. Most of these places of origin are very unreached yet extremely difficult for missionaries to enter and share the Gospel. Many of the resettled refugees still lack a fundamental access to the Gospel without Christians crossing the barrier of culture to share with our new neighbors. Definition of “Refugee”
International Students: The international students we minister to are from places like Saudi Arabia, Japan, China, and India. These students are future leaders of their respective countries and some of the most strategic people in the world to share the love of Christ with because they can be easily sent home with the Good News. Details about countries of origin
Economic Immigrants: Dallas/Fort Worth is home to thousands of economic immigrants that have come the U.S. from all over the world. Many of these people are from unreached places like India, China, Vietnam and more. India has the largest number of unreached ethnic groups in the world, and many of us work right next to them.
