We have a number of link missionaries, both in Australia and overseas, who we support financially and through prayer, as partners seeking to Share Christ.
Tony & Yenli Nguyen

The Blackwell Family
Andrew and Kate (with Ben and William)
In 2013, Andrew and Kate (with their children) moved to Sofia, Bulgaria, to work with victims and those at risk of sexual trafficking and exploitation – the majority of whom come from Roma communities. Over time, God has led them to leadership roles with the International Baptist Church of Sofia (IBCS) and European Christian Mission International (ECMI). Through these ministries, Andrew and Kate hope to see the local church and ECMI missionaries equipped and encouraged to thrive in their ministries and to share the Good News with others.
Mike and Jacky Hammond
Mike and Jacky served as missionaries with SIM in Malawi, Africa, where they lived for fifteen years before returning to Australian in 2021. They are currently working with SIM Australia and SIM International. Jacky works with SIM’s anti-human trafficking ministry ‘For Freedom’ team as the Ministry Co-ordinator for Southern Africa and Australia, and Mike divides his time between providing operational support for the Southern Africa Regional Director, and acting as Company Secretary and providing project support for SIM Australia.

Christine served with OMF in Taiwan from 1999 and returned to Australia in 2021. She then spent a year as a missionary-in-residence at SMBC and currently works with the OMF NSW-ACT team in mobilization. Her ministry has involved sharing Bible stories with people that she meets and discipling groups of new Christians. She also trains others to tell stories and lead groups, and has written several books.

They continue to be involved in training of ni-Vanuatu Bible translators and other church leaders with a course they have developed to equip these people in their understanding and teaching of the Bible.
