Introduction |
Northern
Iraq Despite the region's rich Judeo-Christian history, Islam swept through northern Iraq centuries ago and remains prevalent to this day. In recent times, horrors wrought from the hand of Saddam Hussein have oppressed the Kurdish people. SGI has worked in Iraq since 1993, and our teams are engaged with activities including outreach, discipleship, church development initiatives, summer camps, and Christian schools enrolling hundreds of Muslim students.
Please visit www.csmedes.org to learn more about our schools in Iraq and related staffing opportunities. |
SGI
teams serve among the Kurds of northern Iraq, a colorful and
historic people descended from the ancient Medes of Bible times. From the story
of Daniel
and
King Darius
to the
journey of the Magi, the Kurds have a long and rich history with the living
God.
These schools,
known as the 
American
staff join our team on a semester-by-semester basis, and are responsible
to teach select courses.The balance of their time is spent building relationships
with students, their families, and community friends. |
