 I work out of the NZCMS office in Christchurch but travel within New Zealand and overseas in my role. As Youth Mobilizer I am encouraging, engaging and equipping young people in mission. A large part of my role is to organise our Encounter teams: 2-3 week mission trips to various overseas locations to encounter God and to partner with missionaries and local Christians in the work of God. If you want to know more about upcoming trips visit our NZCMS website: http://www.nzcms.org.nz

 I’m a member of Wycliffe Bible Translators NZ, and working with SIL, SIL being the field arm of WBT. I work in Kathmandu, Nepal, and have a support role, looking after the SIL-Nepal Library, and doing occasional back-translations, from Nepali-English, of books of the NT that have been translated into minority languages here (back translations are done as part of the checking process). I also support our Associate-Director here, in a variety of ways. I attend a Nepali church, and a Nepali home group, and have been here for 11 years.

 Andrew and Anne work in Central Asia with a development organisation that works mainly with rural poor communities. Andrew runs an engineering program that meets needs such as water supply, home insulation and heating/cooking efficiently. The program also investigates many applications of engineering to address needs using locally available materials and by training local people in how to construct these things for themselves. Anne is involved in education and speech therapy.

 Hello our names are Wendy and Josiah Hansen, Wendy grew up in Meadowbank at St Chad's, Josiah is from Minnesota, US. We met at the International House of Prayer in Kansas City while working in the Night watch. We were married in New Zealand November 2010 and now reside in Tauranga working at the Tauranga House of Prayer. We work as Intercessory Missionaries, spending at least 20 hours a week at the prayer room praying for New Zealand and the nations of the earth for God to break in with revival and salvation. The rest of our time is spent in training and pastoring the staff at THOP, as well as teaching occasionally for the internship. The prayer room is open from 6am-12am so we would love to have visitors, please feel free to contact us if you would like to visit. www.thop.co.nz
