Recruiting

We're looking for people with time and energy!

Who's "we"?  
Who has time?
Who's got extra energy?
What do you mean?

Well, if you read my title, you know I'm recruiting.  I'm looking for soul mates, for friends whose enthusiasm for investing their lives in something bigger than "normal" living feels more normal than anything they could invest in.

I'm specifically wanting ideas of people we could interview for a position as EAFC's executive director.  We have one good candidate, but we've been advised to go about this slowly and making SURE (or as sure as possible) that we've made an investment in someone with staying power.

I could ALSO use some people with energy who want to volunteer selling African crafts that will be plowed back into helping those who've made these products.

I'd like to begin collecting a list of people interested in joining a team from EAFC to go on a VISION TRIP.  On our trips, our students and alumni plan our activities, recruit us to help in what they are involved in.  We get to establish relationship with people who are making a difference in their country.

Want to suggest a country we'd visit?  I'm thinking about Liberia, or Malawi, or Zambia, but then that surely does leave out our seeing friends in Kenya, South Africa, Uganda or Rwanda, to name a few.

Now, here's one more place we could use a volunteer.  If you would like to be a part of our scholarship selection, call our office. (This would be approximately a 2 week commitment in May)   Warning!  We hear that those who participate in this part of EAFC are never the same.

Oh, we also need friends who want to make friends with one or two of our students, to pray for and with them.

Think I could make a living recruiting?
Oh, I really don't want another job, but I do want to move hearts to join me in my passion for seeing the church in Africa served by training those they submit to get educations necessary so they can LEAD!
