Maintenance & Construction Specialists

in Togo, West Africa

We have a significant need for maintenance and construction specialists in Southern Togo.

Right now, the teams in Togo are in need of people willing to serve as short and long-term missionaries who are not doctors, teachers, or pastors. Both of our hospitals - Hôpital Baptiste Biblique (south) and Hospital of Hope (north)—as well as our Village of Light School for the Blind (also south) are in urgent need of more folks who can come and assist with manual labor. Our “behind the scenes” maintenance teams need you.

At this time, Togo needs more people who are willing to also say yes to God’s call; those who are willing to come and work behind the scenes so that people like the doctors and chaplains can work without being distracted by technical issues. Our maintenance crews currently have more work in front of them than they can handle alone. Without more people, projects will continue to pile up and it could begin to affect the work being done on the “front end” of various ministries.

Use your skills and specialty in maintenance and construction to reach those in Southern Togo. The Southern Togo Team needs experienced or knowledgeable short, mid- and long-term teammates and volunteers with any of the following skills:

• Auto / construction equipment mechanic
• HVAC (heavy emphasis on the AC portion!)
• Biomedical technician
• Electrician
• Plumber
• Carpenter
• Welder
• Concrete (construction)
• Small engine service / repair

Upcoming projects at the southern hospital include:

• guest house expansion
• house construction
• hospital renovation / expansion
• septic / leech field improvements

You don’t need to be a licensed trades-person but some level of proficiency is preferred.

THE NEED

Togo is located within the “10/40 Window,” which stretches from the West Africa, North Africa, and the Middle East to East Asia--a geographic area characterized by poor quality of life, the fast growth of Islam, and little access to the gospel. We are looking for talented teammates to join our group of missionaries who are involved in a variety of ministries including medical evangelism, a school for the visually impaired, pastoral training, aviation ministries, Christian education, and so much more.

THE IMPACT

The ABWE Togo team has been spreading the gospel and making disciples in Togo since 1974. We’ve seen many lives changed by God’s word and the Holy Spirit. Please consider strengthening our team by joining with us in pursuit of the ministry that God has provided for us in Togo.
