Osaka, Japan

The Hughes family work together with local ministry partners to encourage and equip Christians to trust God confidently through a deeper understanding of his word—in the hope that Japanese Christians would speak boldly and live joyfully for Christ.

Dene works with Kirisutosha Gakusei Kai (KGK), a university student ministry that has supported prayer and Bible study in Japanese universities for over 70 years. Many current church leaders are graduates of this ministry, so KGK plays a vital role in the future of the Japanese church.

Together with their local congregation at Mukonoso Megumi (Grace) Church, they reach out to the local community. Rachel is involved in Bible studies, music classes, and youth ministry. As a family, the Hughes’ open our home to school friends for Bible reading and dinner and support the Seahorses soccer club, an evangelistic sports ministry.

Budapest, Hungary

Budapest, also known as the 'Pearl of the Danube' is the capital city of Hungary. There are 18 universities in the city which attract many international students from all over the world!

These students have a wide range of worldviews and religious backgrounds, and the international student ministry groups seek to reach these students with the goal of seeing them transformed by the gospel.

Vincent will be working as an apprentice in which he’ll have many opportunities to share the gospel while also being trained in ministry, in the hope that many students may taste the grace of God that is found in Jesus.

Preparing to serve in North Australia

Tim and Eloise, along with Samson and Phoebe, are hoping to serve in Ngukurr in the south of Arnhem Land, North Australia. They are looking forward to learning culture and language, with the view to serving alongside Indigenous brothers and sisters by supporting the local church. Their hope is to see local believers equipped, encouraged and strengthened to know, love and serve Jesus.
