VOLUNTEERING OPPORTUNITIES AVAILABLE THROUGH LCA INTERNATIONAL MISSION
Currently, there are two pressing volunteer needs:
Online English teaching support for the Lutheran Church in Cambodia (LCC). Although the LCC English teachers are enthusiastic and invested in this ministry, most do not have teaching degrees and have requested mentorship as they serve. We will therefore be running a 10-week online English program, for one hour every Saturday, beginning on 13 April. Volunteers will be supplied with the curriculum used by LCC English teachers and will offer advice on how to improve the methodology and implement new methods if necessary to improve teacher quality and student learning outcomes.
Library support for the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Papua New Guinea (ELC-PNG). ELC-PNG seminary libraries are seeking the assistance of volunteers with librarian experience to develop and manage a system to file and organise the collection of books located in their libraries. For more information contact Erin Kerber p +61 8 8267 731 erin.kerber@lca.org.au http://www.lcamission.org.au/join-gods-mission/volunteer/
