Mission Statement: Pioneers mobilizes teams to glorify God among unreached peoples by initiating church-planting movements in partnership with local churches.

Statement of Faith:

God We believe in one God, Creator of all things, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Jesus Christ We believe in our Lord Jesus Christ, God manifest in the flesh, His virgin birth, sinless life, divine miracles, vicarious and atoning death on the cross, bodily resurrection, ascension and exaltation, mediatorial work, and personal, imminent, and visible return in power and glory.

The Holy Spirit We believe in God the Holy Spirit, who indwells all believers, enabling them to live holy lives and to witness and work for the Lord Jesus Christ despite opposition from the world, the flesh and Satan.

The Scriptures We believe that the Holy Scriptures, consisting of the Old and New Testaments, were originally given by God, divinely inspired, without error, infallible, and are entirely trustworthy and the supreme authority in all matters of faith and practice.

Man We believe that Adam and Eve, created in the image of God, were tempted by Satan, the god of this world, and fell; that their sin has passed to all people, who as a result are lost, are unable to save themselves from the wrath of God, and need to be saved.

Salvation We believe that salvation is a gift of God to those who repent and personally believe in Jesus Christ; that it is accomplished by God's grace through the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ and regeneration by the Holy Spirit.

The Resurrection We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they who are saved unto the resurrection of eternal life with God, they who are lost unto the resurrection of eternal condemnation separated from God.

The Church We believe in the spiritual unity of all true believers, the Universal Church, the Body of Christ.

The Great Commission We believe that Christ commanded the Church to go into all the world and make disciples of all peoples, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and teaching those who believe to obey all that Christ commanded.

Standard of Conduct: Pioneers believes that the Bible commands all Christians to make every effort to live at peace and to resolve disputes with each other in private or within the Christian community. Conflict and disputes between Christians sometimes happen. If a conflict arises between Pioneers and an employee, the conflict or dispute is to be resolved immediately using Biblical standards.

I certify that I am in agreement with the Mission Statement, Statement of Faith and Standard of Conduct of Pioneers, and if hired by Pioneers, will endeavor to conduct myself and my activities in a way that upholds these standards. I understand that submitting this form electronically is the same as signing and submitting a paper application.
