About Agape Christian School

ACS is seeking suitable teachers to be part of a vibrant school with international students in the western Pacific Ocean. Here, teachers get many opportunities to invest their lives in the lives of the young people and see them change and grow in the Lord Jesus. Successful candidates also get the chance to fly to China to teach in underground Christian schools during summer with air-tickets paid for on top of the medical insurance coverage and other benefits provided by the school. Hence, teachers we are looking for must be spiritual, godly, mission minded, faithful, committed, soul loving, and with a servant- leadership heart. If you think you have the above qualities and would like to get more information, please feel free to email or call. Don’t miss the chance of your life serving in this exciting and adventurous ministry.
