Connecting Around the World
We love to help people connect with Jesus, His people, and His purpose. This is not limited to our own backyard - we take to heart God’s commission to go and make disciples of all nations!
“How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them”
To the Ends of the Earth
We seek to partner with Gospel Workers by sending and supporting them to serve in varied and diverse locations around the world
Mozambique
Our Gospel Workers in Mozambique have worked hard at learning language and culture, establishing trust within the community, and developing key relationships. As they have entered into the lives of those around them, they have had many opportunities to share stories of God and pray with both groups and individuals. They look forward to seeing a vibrant faith community among the Yawo in the future, a community of people who have experienced God’s freedom in their lives, and have a deep knowledge of His story and their place in it.
East Indo
Our Gospel Workers in East Indo aim to help God’s people plant multiplying fellowships in communities of unreached people. Part of their role within the mission organisation is as area leaders. They consider their leadership a privilege as they walk alongside and journey with their team as they serve and live in sometimes very remote locations.
Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC)
Our Gospel Workers in the Democratic Republic of the Congo are relatively new in their position. Over a number of years, God has been laying on their hearts a desire to serve in Africa after a trip in 2012 where they saw first-hand how the church was suffering because pastors lacked access to training. Upon arrival, they expressed their heart in this way: “Mindful of our limitations and frailty, the task before us is overwhelming but - by God’s grace and your partnership - God’s kingdom in the Democratic Republic of the Congo will grow, and God will be honoured.”
Pakistan
Our Gospel Workers in Pakistan have a desire to join God in His purposes of blessing the nations through the knowledge and reception of Jesus Christ. Pakistan has a very small percentage of Christians (1%-1.5%). Our gospel workers seek to come alongside Christians and non-Christians in life by encouraging, reminding, and teaching them of the hope we have in our sovereign Lord. They believe the best way to build relationships and communicate effectively with the people of Pakistan is by living with them over a period of many years.
Cambodia
We partner with Fellowship of Hope Church through their Pastor Sponsorship Program. The program seeks to support churches in Cambodia’s poorest rural areas. Every $60 per month assists a pastor with their day to day needs, promotes the development of long-term in country infrastructure, and resources gospel workers through the provision of tools and resources.
Tanzania
In Tanzania our gospel workers work with the organisation Lead Tanzania. Lead exists to strengthen and encourage youth and young adults through leadership training, equipping and community development. To see transformed lives impacting communities to follow and live for Jesus. 66% of Tanzania’s population is under the age of 25 so it is vitally important to reach these younger people. Our gospel workers have a heart for training and equipping the local people in leadership and gospel truths so that the gospel message of Jesus’ life giving sacrifice can be presented and the local church built up on a solid foundation.
How we partner with Gospel Workers
We have a team dedicated to supporting our overseas Gospel Workers known as the MAG Team (Mission Action Group). Part of the role of the MAG is to act as representatives to the wider church in communicating what has been happening in the lives of our gospel workers so we can share in their joys of ministry and provide both practical and prayerful support in the challenges of their journey.
Meet our MAG Coordinator
“My experience in going on overseas mission trips has convinced me of the need for Gospel Workers to go out and bring the Gospel into all parts of the world. I have seen God working in the hearts of people who had previously had no knowledge of Him and the enormous impact it has had on their lives.”
Partnership in Australia
AFES
Australian Fellowship of Evangelical Students
As well as overseas mission, we also support something a little closer to home. AFES are part of implementing Christian Unions within Universities. Christian Unions work to encourage one another in Christian growth and witness. They run regular public Bible talks, smaller Bible studies, prayer groups, mid-year conferences, and various outreach events. We have two partners proclaiming Jesus at Uni!
