Cross-cultural workers are on the front lines of gospel ministry, yet they often face challenges that stretch beyond their core calling—needs for specialized skills like marketing, technology, communications, and project management. Without the right support, these gaps can limit ministry growth, cause stress, and leave valuable opportunities unrealized.
That’s where the Ministry Expansion Kit comes in. Developed by Switchboard in partnership with Christar and Pioneers, this free resource equips workers to overcome these barriers and accelerate their impact. By connecting with skilled Christian volunteers through Switchboard’s platform, cross-cultural workers can expand their capacity, reduce administrative burdens, and focus more fully on sharing the gospel and making disciples.
A Strategic Tool to Help Fulfill the Great Commission
As part of the broader Finishing the Task vision, the Ministry Expansion Kit helps activate the global Church to serve together—each part doing its work (Ephesians 4:16)—so that every believer is empowered to be a witness and every people group can hear the name of Jesus.
By equipping workers with the right tools and connecting them to a support network of gifted volunteers, this initiative helps churches and mission agencies live out their calling to send, support, and multiply witnesses to the ends of the earth.

As Peter, a worker serving in Spain, shared,
“There wasn’t enough time or resources to get everything done … but Switchboard showed us we weren’t alone. Volunteers lifted a weight we thought we had to carry ourselves.”
