Wondering how many NZ Rally cookbooks made it to the Mission field and beyond?

Such an inspiring story of one person sharing their gifts and talents to help others!

More than a cookbook 🍰💛

For Catherine, the NZ Rally Cookbooks have always been about more than recipes. After more than 60 years supporting Rally, she’s seen how food, fellowship and hospitality can bring people together.

"I grew up with a mother who was a very good cook and all the women in our church at Feilding were good cooks. And I always used to think, why don't we publish a cookbook? Doug Hewlett brought along a cookery book that a Marton group had done. And he said, 'why don’t rallies do a cookbook?' Well, it was just the very thing that I wanted to do."

Today, Catherine is still supporting Rally. Every fortnight, she bakes and ices a chocolate cake to take along to Rally at her church, Heretaunga Community Church, Upper Hutt.

"I will go. Send me."

Margie was planning a trip to Italy when she looked at a map and realised Romania was "right next door". What started as a good idea turned into a calling: a chance meeting with World Vision and Open Home Foundation, a question about who could help orphanages in Romania, and Margie putting her hand up.

That moment became The Family Centre, Margie's Mission Partner work in Romania today. You can learn more about The Family Centre here: https://buff.ly/qTh6rcB

Just finished school? Between jobs? Kids have left home, or recently retired?
If you’ve got a season with fewer commitments, it might be the perfect time to give some of it away. The Life team in South East Asia is looking for people to help in their English school, bakery café and guesthouse, for anywhere from six weeks to a year.

"It takes a spider to repair its own web." 🕸️

This Cambodian proverb sits at the heart of Alongsiders International, the movement started by Kiwi mission partners Craig and Nay Greenfield. Their conviction is that local young people are best placed to reach the most vulnerable children in their own communities, one child at a time.

Join Michael Hanson for a relaxed conversation with Craig and Nay about their journey, the movement God has grown across Asia and Africa, and Bibliojam, Craig's new app that brings the whole Bible to life through music.

Thursday 29 October, 7:30pm to 8:30pm (NZ time)
Online via Zoom
