The Ministries Needs and Resources!

Transportation:Reliable transportation is essential for mobility within Vanuatu, especially in rural or remote areas where roads may be rough or infrastructure
limited. We would need a 4x4 truck/pick-up/Ute at an estimated cost for the
cheapest and most reliable would be approximately US$30 000 (We currently have
about US$10 000)

Communication:Access to communication tools such as mobile phones, laptops/IPad
and internet access for staying connected with supporters, sending reports, and maintaining contact with our covering Church (Redeemer Bible Church).

Healthcare and Medical Supplies: Access to healthcare insurance to cover medical
emergencies or routine health needs.

Education and Training Materials:Resources for teaching and discipleship, such as Bibles, study materials, teaching aids, and possibly access to training programs for
local church leaders and members.

Financial Support: Regular financial support for personal living expenses and ministry
activities, which may include support for local staff, outreach programs, community
projects, fuel. Vehicle maintenance and church development initiatives.

Community Engagement and Relationships:Resources and strategies for building

This October, we're taking a team to Teoma Bush in Port Vila to deliver essential medical supplies—painkillers, antiseptics, and bandages—and build relationships with the community. Your support will help us not only meet their urgent healthcare needs but also create connections that allow us to spread the gospel and, one day, plant a local church.
