Phinehas and Deborah

Donate to Phinehas and Deborah

Phinehas and Deborah are in a creative access location working with local believers to equip leaders, facilitate church planting and build gospel relationships. They are working primarily with three local tribes, reaching out to them with the message of Jesus.

They were called to serve in global mission in 2003 after serving in their home church for many years. They and their two teenage daughters love Jesus and are walking in His grace in response to His faithfulness to them over the years.

The challenges of their ministry include not only reaching out to the unreached with the gospel but also leading teaching and discipleship classes to help equip local church leaders to effectively lead, serve and plant churches in their home country.

Timo and Laura serve in Finland among the refugee population, sharing Jesus with them and equipping Christian refugees to reach out to the Finns they live among and fellow internationals. Ask God to provide enough food, to sustain their food bank ministry. While increasing numbers of refugees are using the service, it has meant that some North African men Timo and Laura have invested in, have stopped coming as the food bank runs out of food quickly. Pray these men would come back, and that God will provide new opportunities to befriend African refugees through this ministry.

Tim is serving as Director for the AIM Asia Pacific Mobilising Region, leading a small team in Australia and coordinating teams in Hong Kong and New Zealand. He and his wife are preparing to move to Australia in January 2025. Give thanks that he has been able to visit the team in Australia. Pray that their move will go smoothly and that God will sustain Tim to continue working nocturnally with the team remotely until they arrive in Australia next year.

Creative Access

We use ‘Creative Access’ to refer to nations, areas or ministries where there is great hostility towards Christianity and where traditional ‘missionary work’ is not possible. Workers, therefore, need to be ‘creative’ in how they proclaim the liberating news of Jesus Christ. In North Africa alone, 200 million people from 472 unreached people groups are unreached with the gospel. That’s 200 million people unknowingly heading for a Christ-less eternity. LEARN MORE

Church Development

We hope that our church development work with local African churches will lead them to be centres of hope and love that draw more people to Jesus. LEARN MORE
