Send qualified people.

PICI offers many opportunities for service, whether for one week or an entire career, or somewhere in between. We are a "faith-based" mission where those who are sent for any opportunity raise their own financial support.

Short-Term Teams
PICI works in partnership with local churches and organizations by bringing together short-term teams from North America and partnering them with indigenous churches. Together, these believers communicate the love of Christ and the gospel message through combined ministry activities with an emphasis on outreach and service to the communities in which they work.

PICI matches the gifts and needs of each North American church team with a specific ministry opportunity which represents and contributes to the vision of the indigenous partner church. We offer a variety of teams which accomplish this goal including work projects, community service, music, medical/dental, sports, and English camps. PICI provides lodging, transportation, orientation and training, translation services, and facilitates the direction and purpose of each ministry team.

We are committed to providing a successful cross-cultural ministry experience for each team that not only edifies each team member, but also strengthens the local church with whom they minister.

Internships
Internships are customized learning and serving experiences for individuals, what we call TIME—Total Immersion Missionary Experience. We provide opportunities to not only experience another culture, but also to learn what mission work and service in a different cultural context is all about. Internships are designed around the needs, skills, education, experience, and language level of the individual and the particular needs of our field staff and partners. Term length can range from several weeks to two years.

Long-Term Service
As a sending agency, we place long-term and career workers in field positions. We are very flexible on term length, field and type of service, and training requirements. We seek to match the life and work experiences, education level, gifts and skills of those considering long-term service to specific field and partner needs and requirements. With our wide network of partners, we can place people in a variety of locations and positions.

The home office of PICI provides our long-term staff with financial services and back office administration by sending financial statements to supporters, managing support and expense accounts, helping to raise funds for special projects, and providing health insurance and a retirement plan.
