24-7 Ibiza Application Form

*Please read this before completing your application form*


24-7 Ibiza is a Missional Christian community based in Ibiza. It is part of 24-7 Prayer International, an interdenominational prayer movement established in 1999 in Chichester, England. Based on shared community values of prayer, mission and justice, 24-7 Ibiza seek to make Jesus known in Ibiza.

Each year the community welcomes people from all over the world to spend an extended time with us, learning about and engaging in prayer and mission by being part of our Summer Long Term Team in Ibiza, sharing God’s kindness on the famous West End strip in San Antonio and with the wider community. 

For over 20 years, we have prayed with thousands, given practical assistance to thousands more and have shared the love of Jesus with countless others in one of the party capitals of the world. Over the last number of years our work has also shifted to focus on the neglected in society, and so our teams will also have opportunities to serve the homeless and vulnerable in the wider community. 

Alongside this you will become part of our community life. You will be living communally, practising hospitality with the local working community, becoming involved in areas of injustice, learning about and studying the Bible together, enjoying the creativity and diversity of the island, and sharing life together through intentional discipleship.

You will be trained in a lifestyle of prayer and mission, with opportunities to grow in leadership and to develop your giftings. With the main focus of the Long Term Team centering around the seasonal working community, we prefer a minimum of 6 weeks. If you cannot join us for this length of time please get in touch before completing your form.

As a Long Term Team member you will:

• Be a part of the night time outreach in San Antonio.
• Serve in our daytime centre for those in need in the community, offering friendship, prayer, a listening ear and the use of the services in the centre.
• Join in our prayer rhythms across the island. 
• Show hospitality to and build friendships with the local working community.
• Spend time in bars, clubs and on beaches, enjoying and engaging with local culture.
• Participate in team Bible studies and reflections.
• Facilitate the practical running of the summer seasonal work.

So if you are wanting to be involved with our community for between 6 weeks and 6 months of prayer, mission, justice, creativity, hospitality and learning, then please fill in the application form and send it back to us.
