We need teachers of English

By Glenice Hartwich | 0 comment | Categories: Volunteers and Supporters

Reverend Neville Otto and Glenice Hartwich hear this request nearly every time they meet with people from our Lutheran overseas partner churches. Learning English helps people to get jobs and to engage with people from other countries – particularly important for pastors and churchy leaders. In addition, English classes are a way to build bridges […]

My eleventh visit to Deborah Orphanage in North Sumatra, was from 29 June to 19 August 2014. The Hulme family from Para Vista came to North Sumatra this year; Bruce, Sonia, five children from twelve to four, and Sonia’s cousin, Vicki Sumner. They were definitely the right people for the venture, culturally sensitive, ready to […]

Teachers teaching teachers

By Glenice Hartwich | 0 comment | Categories: Volunteers and Supporters

We’re all learners, even though of us who are teachers. A great way that a teacher can learn is by visiting schools in other countries and watching their educators teach. This open attitude to two-way discovery and learning is the foundation for a thriving partnership between St John’s Lutheran School, Highgate, and the schools in […]

The cost of the cross

In many ways, Andry and Ammylyn are like any other young Lutheran couple. When you have two active children to care for, life is full on. But now they’ve added another challenge to their busy lives.

Sophouen, and her close friend Sreyleak, are no ordinary Cambodians. Their lives have been transformed from the ordinary, into children of God, followers of Jesus Christ. Sophouen and Sreyleak were among the ‘first fruits’ of the ministry in Kampong Chhnang, Cambodia. They were invited into the emerging church’s two-year internship program, and later developed a […]

Good news for Cambodian mission

Heart sounds

By Rosie Schefe | 0 comment | Categories: Bible Translation, Mission Workers, Papua New Guinea

In Papua New Guinea a self-confessed ‘nerd in hiking boots’ wends her way along steep and narrow mountain tracks, putting to work her trust in God every time she steps onto a bridge. As a linguist and translation worker, Hanna Schulz is carrying on a vision of cross-cultural mission which has been part of the […]

The Gift

By Kendrea Rhodes | 0 comment | Categories: Thailand

Lying here, I feel love washing over me, covering me head to toe, the inevitable inbound wave. I can’t avoid it. I feel the gift of life, just now, just in this moment. I am in hospital with my baby in my arms. My beautiful baby boy. I relish the joy of him…his perfect mouth […]
