WELCOME TO GFA WORLD

Since 1979, we have been committed to serving the “least of these” in Asia and Africa, primarily in places where no one has ever heard the name of Jesus, so that those still waiting can experience the love of God for the first time. Today, nearly 3 billion people have little to no opportunity to ever hear the name of Jesus. Every single day, an estimated 70,000 people die without ever hearing His name.

We are partnered with National Missionaries serving as the hands and feet of Christ in Asia and Africa, children in poverty and suffering, and community development initiatives helping families in need of care or during disasters.

As a Christian missions order we are a small organisation, but we are deeply committed to doing our work with excellence, faithfulness, and care in everything we do. We function as a community, and by joining GFA World you’ll be joining a family that does life together—journeying toward Jesus, living for eternity, and making a difference for some of the poorest and most afflicted people on earth in Christ’s name.

Our Mission

We exist to ensure no one dies without knowing the love of Christ and give people the chance to experience a transformed life in Christ by partnering with National Missionaries to bring the love of Jesus to communities still waiting to hear His name.

WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS

GFA World's mission is to help people know Jesus and experience His love in places where there is little or no Christian presence. Every donation, prayer, event, communication, and ministry activity relies on strong systems and faithful stewardship behind the scenes. 

This role helps ensure that GFA World remains financially sound, legally compliant, operationally effective, and a healthy place for staff to serve. You will help steward the resources entrusted to us by our partners, support the staff who carry out the ministry, and maintain the systems that allow our work to grow sustainably.

As a small and highly collaborative team, we do not have separate departments for finance, human resources, compliance, facilities, health and safety, or operations. Instead, we rely on people who are willing to take ownership, learn new things, solve problems, and help strengthen the organisation wherever needed.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys creating and improving systems, spotting gaps, and ensuring that important things do not fall through the cracks.

OCCUPATIONAL REQUIREMENT

As a result of our Christian ethos, this post is covered by an Occupational Requirement under Part 1 of Schedule 9 to the Equality Act 2010. The successful applicant will be expected to:

GFA WORLD’S STATEMENT OF FAITH

We Believe:

•    That the Bible is the inspired and infallible Word of God, given to us by the Church – “the pillar and ground of the truth” (1 Timothy 3:15).
•    The Nicene Creed to be the official Creed of the Holy Church.
•    In one God, Creator of all things, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and that these three are co-eternal and of equal dignity and power.
•    In the deity of Jesus Christ; His miraculous conception by the Holy Spirit; His virgin birth; His sinless life; His death on a cross; His bodily resurrection; His ascension to the right hand of the Father; and His personal, imminent return.
•    That man was created by and for God; that by man’s disobeying God, every person incurred spiritual death, which meant they were no longer in communion with God, and physical death was the consequence; and that all people are given the option of being redeemed and restored to God.
•    The Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins and that all who believe in Him are declared righteous because of His victory over death and are, therefore, in right relationship with God.
•    Salvation means far more than being “saved from sin; we are saved for sonship, to be divinely adopted sons and daughters of God. Forgiveness is the precondition for God’s greater gift, the gift that will last beyond our death: the gift of divine life” (1 Corinthians 15:3-7).
•    Believers in Christ are destined to share in the life of the Holy Trinity. Sharing in the life of God, as God has shared in our humanity (1 Peter 1:4).
•    In the present ministry of the Holy Spirit indwelling all believers and thus enabling and empowering the life and ministry of the believer.
•    In the bodily resurrection of everyone who has lived, the everlasting blessedness of those in right relationship with God, and eternal separation for those who have rejected God’s forgiveness in His Son.
•    The sacrament of marriage to be ordained by God as a holy union between one man and one woman as biologically defined at birth.

OUR DESIRE

THE NICENE CREED

We believe in one God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible.

And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds; God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God; begotten, not made; being of one substance with the Father, by whom all things were made. Who, for us men and for our salvation, came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the Virgin Mary, and was made man; and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate. He suffered and died and was buried; and the third day He rose again, according to the Scriptures, and ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of the Father; and He shall come again, with glory, to judge the living and the dead; whose Kingdom shall have no end.

And we believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and Giver of Life; who proceeds from the Father; who with the Father and the Son together is worshiped and glorified; who spoke by the prophets. And we believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic church.

We acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins; and we look for the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.

Amen
