Annette is the Personnel Officer in our Southern Africa Region office. She is currently co-leading the Personnel Department of the newly merged mobilising (MR) and receiving (RR) offices. As the 3-year merging process is progressing, the Personnel Officer on the MR side and Annette (on the RR) are working collaboratively to understand each other’s roles and support each other in finding ways they can care for and serve their members, department team, office, region and organisation more effectively and efficiently – in a manner that brings honour, glory and praise to God. As the Personnel Department, they are involved in caring for, supporting, managing, and helping members/family units from the point of enquiry all the way through to being placed on the field and returning/retiring from the field. Short-Term, TCK Care, Pastoral Care and Training & Development also fall under the Personnel Department. So pray for wisdom, patience and a fruitful merger.

Annette* is the Personnel Officer in our Southern Africa Region office. The last two years have been an extended time of transition to a new office, home, and church. She has had to wait patiently for the Lord, but her heart is full of thankfulness and joy at his recent provision. Pray that her testimony of the Lord’s goodness through this time will be of great help to all she supports in her role, as they too serve through transitions, uncertainty, and periods of waiting on the Lord.
