UPDATE
At COMIX35's Annual Board Meeting in November 2009, José Carlos Gutiérrez of México was chosen as our first "Timothy/Joshua" and began to receive training as a staff member and possible future leader of our ministry. This training has included trips to Quebec in April 2010 and Japan in August 2010.
We are continuing our search for special people to join the COMIX35 ministry.

The "Timothys and Joshuas /
Marthas and Priscillas" Project
One of the main concerns for our ministry from the beginning has been:
"Who will be the 'Timothys and Joshuas' or 'Marthas and Priscillas' who will continue this ministry work when we retire or pass on, if the Lord doesn't return before that time?"
So when we ask "Would you like to join COMIX35?" it's not because we're just looking for more media missionaries or staff.
We're searching for future leaders.
We require Christian brothers or sisters who have the strong interest, energy, enthusiasm, thoroughness, and cultural sensitivity necessary to do the work of this ministry. We need hardworking, humble, servant-hearted, Philippians 2:4 ("look also to the interests of others") kinds of people who also have some level of knowledge and experience in the field of comics.
We know that the people we seek may be literally one-in-every-million.
So we are holding a multi-stage "audition" to locate these unique people.
The 3 stages are tests that are set up to help us identify:
[1] Interested Applicants
[2] Potential Candidates
[3] Our Top Prospect
If this sounds exciting to you, and you think you may be the answer to our one-in-a-million challenge, it's possible you might have what it takes to be one of the future leaders this ministry requires.

Here's what you should do NOW to get the process started:
- Use the Site Map to read through all the pages of the COMIX35 site in order to familiarize yourself with the history of the ministry as well as future plans and projects.

- Download and fill out the Stage 1 Application and return it to us by postal mail or e-mail along with your résumé or c.v. as soon as possible.

All materials submitted by Interested Applicants will be read and reviewed by the current staff and Board members of COMIX35. We will acknowledge all applications by e-mail with 1-2 weeks of receipt. (Please do not postal mail one-of-a-kind materials, such as original artwork, as no submitted materials will be returned.)
Interested Applicants will be informed within 1-2 months whether or not they have been selected as Potential Candidates.
All Potential Candidates will be informed of what will be required to complete Stage 2 and to be considered as a Top Prospect.
In Stage 3, our Top Prospect will have the opportunity to join current staff and Board members of COMIX35 to become acquainted personally, to receive one-on-one “schooling” from staff and Board in their areas of expertise, to go through a COMIX35 orientation, and/or to attend some mini-Missionary Development sessions.
Lord willing, our goal is to meet with at least one Top Prospect every year at our annual Board Meeting.

Currently COMIX35 is open to starting Top Prospects in several possible working arrangements, including the following:
- Living in New Mexico USA, working through the main office, raising personal support, working on ministry staff full-time (or part-time on staff and "tentmaking" part-time)
- Living elsewhere in the USA, working long-distance as a "tentmaker" cyber-volunteer
- Living in a foreign country, working long-distance as a "tentmaker" cyber-volunteer
After a mutually agreeable trial period, other living/working arrangements may be desirable or necessary.
