Although most of his pastoral life has seen him engaged with urban and western-based ministry settings, from early on in his Christian experience he felt convicted to share the Gospel beyond his own cultural boundaries.
Vivian is gifted in mentoring, equipping, strategic planning, team dynamics, pastoral care and theological reflection. He will remain based in NSW and offer leadership, pastoral care and strategic planning to the team through regular visits and video conferences.
Vivian’s role in Outback Australia is in partnership with Australian Baptist Ministries and the Baptist Union of Northern Territory. He will spend time with Indigenous Baptist Churches and leaders, establishing and actioning plans for leadership development and theological reflection.
Through their day-to-day life, Jean-Claude and Joyce are engaging with people wholistically, responding to their spiritual and physical needs.
Jean-Claude and Joyce share a passionate love for God and people and desire to see the Yawo follow Jesus within their cultural context. They are building relationships with their Yawo neighbours and investing in their culture and language learning with a local language nurturer so they can effectively communicate with their Yawo friends.
They are grateful for the prayers and financial support they receive as they actively seek to build meaningful relationships amongst the Yawo and see communities transformed as they follow Jesus in ways that make sense to them.
