Frontiers USA — Organization Profile
Frontiers USA is a Christian mission organization focused on sharing the gospel among Muslim peoples with limited access to Christian witness. The organization’s stated mission is to inspire transformational movements to Christ within least-reached Muslim people groups by sending teams to catalyze change. Frontiers describes its work with the phrase “with love and respect, inviting all Muslim peoples to follow Jesus.”
The organization’s core focus is recruiting, training, sending, and serving long-term teams who live in Muslim communities. Frontiers prioritizes peoples and places with the least access to the gospel and seeks to make disciples among Muslim peoples who do not know the saving message of Jesus Christ. Its approach emphasizes long-term presence, team-based ministry, disciple making, and locally appropriate strategies in the places where workers serve.
Frontiers USA is based in Phoenix, Arizona, and is part of a wider Frontiers network with national offices in multiple countries. The U.S. organization serves churches, mission candidates, long-term workers, short-term participants, and supporters who want to engage Muslim peoples. Its ministry scope includes regions of the Muslim world such as North Africa, the Sahel and Sub-Saharan Africa, Türkiye and the Balkans, the Middle East and Arabian Peninsula, Central Asia and the Caucasus, Southwest Asia, South Asia, and Southeast Asia.
The organization operates through a process it describes as recruit, train, send, and serve. Frontiers coaches across the United States help identify followers of Christ who share the organization’s heart for Muslims. Training prepares workers for language learning, disciple making, personal development, and healthy team dynamics. Teams are then sent to least-reached Muslim people groups, while pastoral coaches and other support staff serve workers and their children through the challenges of cross-cultural ministry.
A distinctive part of Frontiers USA’s model is field-governed, locally led, team-based mission work among Muslim peoples. The organization says team leaders make decisions for their own context and that teams serve with a common regional vision while adopting locally appropriate strategies. Frontiers also emphasizes coaching, accountability, grace-filled relationships, and a focus on planting healthy, reproducing churches through disciples who make more disciples.
People can engage with Frontiers USA by praying, giving to the Frontiers Mission Fund, supporting individual workers, exploring short-term trips, beginning the long-term application process, attending events, using resources, or helping a local church take next steps in mission engagement. Churches can connect with Frontiers for opportunities to send, support, and mobilize people for ministry among least-reached Muslim communities.

ELIC is based in Fort Collins, Colorado, with additional offices in Langley, British Columbia, Canada, and Causeway Bay, Hong Kong. Its educators serve across Asia, the Middle East, North Africa, China, Iraq, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Laos, Mongolia, Morocco, Thailand, Tunisia, Türkiye, Uzbekistan, and Vietnam. ELIC began sending teachers to China in 1982 and now offers teaching opportunities in universities, K–12 schools, language centers, community centers, and teacher-training settings.
The organization’s core focus is English education as a pathway for meaningful global service, cultural engagement, and relationship-building. ELIC works through partnerships with governments and educational institutions, placing professional educators in settings where English instruction is needed and where teachers can serve with excellence, humility, and cultural sensitivity. Teachers may serve for a few weeks, nine months, or one year or longer.
ELIC’s programs include short-term Engage opportunities, the Global Ambassador Program, and longer-term Legacy teaching placements. Engage provides team-based summer teaching opportunities for people serving two to eight weeks. The Global Ambassador Program is a nine-month mentorship and cross-cultural development program in locations such as Thailand, Tunisia, and Uzbekistan. Legacy is ELIC’s one-year-or-longer teaching program for university campuses, K–12 schools, and language centers.
The organization also provides substantial support for educators before, during, and after overseas service. ELIC’s process includes inquiry, application, interview, preparation, pre-departure training, support development, team placement, and ongoing care while overseas. Services include orientation, health and safety assistance, visa and travel guidance, personal support, insurance, financial advising, newsletter support, alumni care, and team-based field leadership.
People can engage with ELIC by applying to work overseas as professional educators, exploring short-term or long-term teaching opportunities, joining the Global Ambassador Program, giving financially, inviting ELIC’s president or team members to speak, reading Field Notes, connecting with alumni resources, or contacting the organization for more information. ELIC also offers career opportunities for people interested in North American office support and mobilization work.
