We won't ever share your photo outside the organization with anybody, or allow it to be used in a manner that's inconsistent with representing you as a missionary.
Descriptions
Missional Title or Role
- Very short: 2-8 words on your title, role
- Use the most "MTD friendly" description, not necessarily an official job title (not "Staff Level 2")
- For most cases you'll capitalize each word as if it's a title.
- e.g. "Campus Missionary" "Pastor" "Associate Pastor in Missional Church" "Church Planting Pastor with Evangelism Focus" "Missionary to the Japanese People" "Minister, Gospel-Teller, Apostle, Bible-Believer"

About My Ministry
2-3 short paragraphs about your ministry: the need, the answer to the need, your role and heart.
- Describe your vision and ministry role for financial & prayer partners.
- Two paragraphs is ideal . 4 because it looks nice. Aim for 2-4 sentences each, or 4 to 8 sentences total.
- Did you have a profile on the GCM website? This is nearly double the space, so feel free to use it.
- Tips:
- Give a summary of what you do.
- Include key titles (e.g. “Director of Worship & Outreach.”). Add concrete responsibilities or specialties (“small group coaching” or “evangelism specialist”).
- Mention the mission field or need and include the gospel (“40,000 student mission field who need to hear the good news of Christ”).
- Describe your heart or vision "Jason desires that every person in the Englewood neighborhood of Chicago would know the love of Jesus Christ"
- Spouse in ministry can include another paragraph to describe what the other does.
- Write in the third person. (Jason does... he likes to... not "I do, I like to...)
- Avoid:
- Local church jargon that might be hard to understand for a wider Christian audience (e.g. “TNL” or “canvas group”).
- Trying to list Listing everything you do; choose key responsibilities.
- Uncommon abbreviations.
