Every year, people are joining TWR and exploring opportunities, experiencing transformed lives, engaging their passions and making an eternal difference. Short-term assignments, from six months to two years, are designed to provide exposure to international cultures and needs while allowing missionaries to envision where God might lead them to pursue longer term ministry. Short-termers also experience opportunities for meaningful outreach on the field.

Trans World Radio is passionate about reaching the world for Christ through mass media. Long-term missionary roles (three years or more) vary widely depending on the needs of a given location. Positions center around the production, distribution and support of multimedia ministry, but also include many other administrative and nontechnical needs. So many people move through life without discovering or utilizing their passion to make a lasting impact. But for those whose personal journey is stirring them toward cross-cultural ministry, TWR is here to help them use their skills for an eternal purpose.

Volunteer service may be short- or long-term. Retirees often provide great experience and expertise through volunteering in the United States and overseas locations. Missions trip groups can also volunteer to visit TWR sites and help with larger projects, like construction, which missionaries might be unable to complete due to insufficient resources or workers.
