Name of Employer: Word Increase Ministry

Job Title:DNG Ministry Director

Location: Kigali, Rwanda (With Remote work)

Reports to: WIM Director

Start Date:  January 2026

Contract Type: Full-Time

Background

Rwanda is often described as a Christian nation; yet many believers remain biblically illiterate and not firmly grounded in the truths of Scripture. Even more concerning is that the next generation is being overlooked in evangelism and discipleship. Across churches, children are rarely seen as people who need to hear and understand the Gospel. Some view them as “little angels,” innocent and sinless, while others assume they are too young to grasp spiritual truths. As a result, very little intentional ministry is directed toward children — even those growing up in Christian homes.

At Discipling the Next Generation (DNG), we believe every child needs to hear and understand the simple, life-changing message of the Gospel. We long to see the children of Rwanda come to know Jesus personally and grow in His Word. There is a great and urgent need for this next generation to be faithfully taught the truth of Scripture, so that they may believe, be discipled, and live in light of the Gospel.
