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.

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.  Pray for their friend Amanda*, who sadly became unemployed again and who has begun an online recipe and meal delivery service to support herself and use her gifts in cooking. Pray that God will provide her with a reliable income. She often speaks as if she is a believer, however, she denies Jesus as Lord. Pray that God will open her heart to acknowledge Jesus as God and Saviour.

Edward* serves in a closed country where there are very few Christians. Pray that God will bless his local language acquisition as he spends two weeks in the capital city to study the language more intensively. Give thanks that after many Bible discussions and working through large differences in worldview, his friend Jason* agreed that he now understood the Christian view on sin and why the penalty of sin is death. Praise God for this huge step forward in Jason’s understanding. Ask God to help Jason see and understand how only Jesus could perfectly pay the price for sin and that he did so on the cross.

Graham and Fiona* served in a creative access location and are back in the UK for their final home assignment before their retirement. Give thanks that they have enjoyed visits to family and friends and feel very welcomed and supported by their sending church. Pray that they rely on God as they face a difficult situation with their tenant who refuses to move out so that they can sell their house and buy a more suitable property for their needs in retirement. Pray for a peaceful resolution and that they will be a witness of Christ’s grace and patience in this situation.

Tim began serving as Director for the AIM Asia Pacific Mobilising Region in February 2024, leading a small team in Australia and coordinating teams in Hong Kong and New Zealand. Give thanks for Tim’s recent trip to Kenya to attend AIM Leaders’ meetings and visit missionaries and their ministries. Give thanks that he was greatly encouraged by meeting recent graduates from the Marsabit Northern Bible Training Centre and hearing how their training has made them more confident in reading, understanding and preaching the Bible. He is still in the UK and working nights with his team in Australia while he waits for his visa to be approved. Pray that God will sustain him and that he will continue to be encouraged by what God is doing through his people across the world.

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. Give thanks with them that one of their believing friends Joyce*, who has found some financial independence selling candy floss in her cart, has had the boldness to share the gospel of Jesus with a cleaner, *Naya, at the restaurant she parks her cart next to. Naya* has shown significant interest in knowing more about Jesus as a result of her interactions with Joyce*. Pray that this friendship will grow, and that God will open Maya*’s eyes to know the truth of the gospel for herself.

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
