Change is part of life. In an effort to stay local while serving globally, and to keep all of your donations flowing into my specific ministry and not on running an organization, I am shifting my affiliation from South Pacific Christian Fellowship to The Ark Christian Ministries.
South Pacific Christian Fellowship is reorganizing their administration processes to cater to new recruits. Because I have a forwarding agent and systems that have served us well for 30 years, I’ve chosen to shift affiliation to The Ark. This changes nothing about what we do in New Zealand. Ministry in NZ stays the same: US administration and care for me as a Kingdom worker comes under a different umbrella. This has been a process of more than two years, and relationships with the good people of SPCF and the new church planting teams are strong and friendly.
The Ark is the new name for Rainbow Christian Camp with which I’ve had a relationship for 40 years as a camper, faculty member and missionary. The Ark is intentional about evangelism, discipleship, and missions which is a terrific match for us. In this new venture as a sending agency they have a handful of missionaries affiliated and will include more as opportunities arise. Feel free to call me if you have any questions about any of this. We believe strongly in transparency and trust. All checks will need to be made out to The Ark Christian Ministries and sent via Cheryl and the Louisville PO Box as before. Any questions about that can be asked of Cheryl on (317) 385-9822. I am seeking new supporting partners as we had a shortfall in last year’s income. Some churches have been struggling financially and had to decrease or stop support. Some individuals too have had altered circumstances. Costs continue to go up, so I’m making a concerted effort to contact new potential partners. Let me know if you know of individuals or churches who might partner with us, and please pray for the conversations I’m having now.
