Serve with us

Advocacy Team Member

Help advance the mission through prayer, relationships, and strategic support.

What is an Advocacy Team Member?

An Advocacy Team Member is a trusted ministry partner who helps advance the work of Zieg's on a Mission through prayer, relationships, and strategic support. This is an invitation to walk alongside us — not a corporate job posting or a formal board appointment.

Advocacy Team Members are not a governing board, oversight committee, or decision-making body for the ministry. Instead, they serve as advocates, ambassadors, and ministry partners who extend the mission into their own circles of influence.

You bring your relationships, your voice, and your heart for the gospel. We provide direction, resources, and ongoing communication so you can represent the mission faithfully and relationally.

Our mission

“To mobilize ordinary believers to participate in God's mission by making disciples, multiplying leaders, strengthening churches, and helping bring the gospel to those who have little or no access to it.”

Four primary roles

Advocacy Team Members serve in four complementary ways — each one rooted in relationship, prayer, and a shared love for the gospel.

Pray

Cover the ministry, the team, and the harvest field in consistent, faith-filled prayer.

Pray for open doors, wisdom, and protection for the Zieg family and ministry partners.
Intercede for unreached peoples and new communities of faith where the gospel is taking root.
Pray during active campaigns for clarity, provision, and the right partners at the right time.
Lift up other Advocacy Team Members and the growing community of ministry partners.

Advocate

Represent the mission with integrity — sharing the vision where you live, work, and worship.

Tell the story of what God is doing through Zieg's on a Mission with warmth and accuracy.
Answer questions honestly and point people to ministry resources when helpful.
Speak on behalf of the mission when invited — in small groups, churches, or informal settings.
Help others understand that partnership is relational mission, not a transaction.

Connect

Open relational doors by introducing people, churches, and communities to the mission.

Introduce friends, family, or colleagues who may be interested in prayer or partnership.
Connect pastors, leaders, or small groups who want to learn more about the work.
Identify businesses, churches, or networks where advocacy conversations may be natural.
Help potential partners take a next step — a conversation, visit, gift, or prayer commitment.

Mobilize

Help expand the community of partners who pray, give, and go alongside the mission.

Invite others to explore monthly partnership, one-time giving, or Mission Hub community.
Share campaign updates and opportunities during active fundraising seasons.
Encourage others to participate through prayer, giving, or serving in their own context.
Champion the mission locally so more ordinary believers can step into God's global work.

Partnership Goal Commitment

Each Advocacy Team Member is invited to consider a Partnership Goal Commitment — a shared target that helps us grow the community of partners supporting the mission. This is not a quota, obligation, or performance metric. You are not expected to fund the mission alone.

The goal is to help build a growing community of prayer and financial partners who walk with us over time. Your role is to multiply connection and invitation — we celebrate every step of faith, large or small.
