Rex and Ruby

Rex and Ruby* have served in a variety of different creative access locations, seeking to share the gospel with those who have yet to hear it.

In 2017 they moved to a new location, which is a popular tourist resort for locals in their country. When they moved there, they knew of no Christian believers in that area. Over recent years they have encountered some followers of Jesus but those they’ve met live isolated and difficult lives, without the encouragement of local fellowship.

To meet more people in their community, as well as a means to contribute to their society and to give them reason to stay in country, Rex & Ruby have set up an English Language centre and teach English to professionals. They also lead a team, with team members able to serve through teaching, and also through a wide range of seasonal work available in their resort town.

They are seeking through all their encounters and through the witness of their team, to share more of Christ’s love and model lives lived with hope to their friends, students, neighbours and wider community.

Ruth* works on an Indian Ocean Island seeking to share the gospel with people who have never had it explained to them. In her culture’s context, being an unmarried woman past your twenties is deemed very shameful. One of Ruth’s colleagues actually wept when learning that Ruth is single. Give thanks that Ruth is content in her singleness and that this has enabled her to explain her spiritual relationship with Jesus, made possible through Christ’s death and resurrection. Pray that Ruth will continue to treasure her Lord in times of loneliness or perceived shame in her community and that the joy of a relationship with Jesus will be attractive to her friends.

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
