Post-Graduation and Summer Opportunities
WORLD MISSIONS and iEDGE
Navigators World Missions launches and develops new generations of people like you to sacrificially advance Jesus’ Kingdom to the ends of the earth. We have hundreds of workers in over 50 countries, from North and South America to Africa, Europe, Asia, Australia, and the Pacific. Over two-thirds of our overseas workers live in and among people who historically have been resistant to the gospel. Many of them work in or near the 10/40 Window, named for the belt of countries falling 10 and 40 degrees north of the equator from Africa to Asia.
​
iEDGE is a two year commitment to make disciples of university students overseas. You’ll join a team of 3-4 other recent college grads alongside long-term in-country staff. You’ll make unforgettable friends across cultures and plant the gospel deep in their hearts. You’ll grow in your vision, character, heart, and practical experience. You’ll be challenged in ways you couldn’t have guessed and grow in ways you wouldn’t believe. It will be hard. It will be an adventure. Jesus is worth it. The nations are waiting.
Meet this Year's Giving Project
KAITLYN MEDLOCK
Kaitlyn grew up in Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri and accepted Christ when she was in the eighth grade. Although she was very involved in the church, she didn't know what it looked like to share the Gospel and disciple among the lost. Kaitlyn went to college at Northwest Missouri State University and that is when she met the Navigators and learned how to share the Gospel, what it meant to be a disciplemaker, and how to have an abiding relationship with the Lord.
​
During her last year of college, the Lord softened her heart to sharing the Gospel among the nations and unreached people groups. Kaitlyn had no idea that there were people around the world that never heard the name of Jesus, let alone have the opportunity to accept Him as Lord and Savior. She graduated in May of 2022 with a degree in Marine Biology and decided to pursue international student ministry with the Navigators at the Northwest. Now she’ll be on iEDGE in Hawaii, living and discipling among the lost at the University of Hawaii in Honolulu.
