Tim and Heather

Sent from Christ Church Liverpool

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.

Alongside supporting the 35 or so long-term missionaries sent from the region, there is an increasing vision to engage more widely and deeply with churches across the Asia Pacific area to enable them to play a fuller part in reaching the unreached peoples of Africa and to send more gospel workers to the African harvest fields.  This has been the focus of Tim’s work over the last few years, and his passion to see churches more effectively involved in taking the gospel to unreached people groups.

Heather, who is a nurse, will be looking for work in the Gosford area. Although she is an Australian her family will still be a 3.5-hour flight away, so she’ll not be ‘going home’.  It does mean that Tim has a route to obtain a visa, application process permitting!

Tim and Heather are currently raising support and are looking for people who would like to partner with them in their ministry through both prayer and financial giving.

Latest Prayer News

Pray for AIM as, united by Christ’s love, we welcome labourers from many nations and cultures to step out into cross-cultural ministry and find their place in the Great Commission. Pray that wherever we minister, we would follow the model and teaching of Jesus as we walk in humility and build relationships in our communities. As we serve on diverse teams, and in collaboration with varied ministry partners, pray that we would be giving testimony to the truth and beauty of the Body of Christ. 

Kay* leads a medical team on the Indian Ocean Islands. She is nearing the end of a Bible overview with Mama Fiona*. Please pray Mama Fiona will see and commit to the truth and choose to follow Jesus. Pray too for wisdom in what to study next, as they gauge where her heart is. The two of them travelled to another town for the wedding of one of her family members. Pray that this time spent together outside their studies would enrich their relationship.

Mix and Katie Miner serve at Rift Valley Academy (RVA).  Recent experiences have shed light on why people pray before every journey. Kenya has over 4,000 recorded traffic deaths a year, not including the unrecorded ones. Passing a fatal road traffic accident recently, a distraught crowd started beating on their car, opened the door and tried to reach in. Not long ago, a special education teacher from Nairobi died in a bus accident on her way to teach at their school. Please pray for the government seeking to address this and for safe travel for workers.

Amelia* serves in West Africa, sharing the gospel with those in a region that is very opposed to the message of Jesus Christ. During a recent flare up of trouble in the South, the Lord used the intervention of a local unbelieving mayor to plead for calm and consideration. Pray that God would continue to raise up leaders like this mayor, courageous and reasonable men and women who will not just stand against violent acts but also for local believers. Pray that the church in the South would continue to grow, and that the recent events would unsettle many unbelievers, in the immediate locality and beyond, until they find their rest in Jesus.

Cees and Mirjam Molenaar serve in Kotido, Uganda, to engage the Karimojong people for Christ. Mirjam trains teachers and children’s workers using materials called “In Step with the Master Teacher” (ISMT) – there are currently 60 participants. One recent participant wrote, “The lesson on salvation changed my life. Frankly, I was only a Christian in name. I have now come to know the Lord Jesus as Saviour and Redeemer. I didn’t know the Bible was so beautiful, I feel like reading all the stories!” 

Topista, a Karamojong woman, has taken two different courses in children’s ministry. On Sundays, she leads the children’s program in her congregation.  During the week, she and the team go to unreached villages to evangelize, and she has also started a Christian community school in a nearby town, together with some mothers. Pray that many Karamojong children will come to know and obey God.
