125 Years of Gospel in South Africa
Multi-ethnic, multi-skilled teams living out the gospel in heart, word and deed — across South Africa and the world.
Our Purpose
SIM South Africa exists to see the gospel take root among South Africa's least-reached communities — and to send South Africans to do the same among the nations. We recruit, equip, and place mission workers in multi-cultural teams, working in close partnership with local churches.
Our vision is a South Africa where every community has heard the good news of Jesus Christ — and a growing movement of South Africans carrying that same good news to the world.
There are numerous opportunities to serve right here in South Africa. SIM brings together missionaries from many places with many gifts — joined by one purpose.

Look at the fields — they are ripe for harvest. SIM South Africa is looking for people willing to cross cultural boundaries and bring the Good News where it is least known.
