Jack and Rachel share a passion for cross-cultural ministry - valuing the beauty and diversity of languages and cultures of the people that God has created. They have both completed study in education, linguistics and theology.

Jack is currently serving with SILA's Flourishing Communities Project in Melbourne, Australia. This involves partnering with migrant community leaders to discuss how language use and cultural identity are intricately connected and can be related to issues within their communities here in Australia. He is using his linguistics knowledge to assist communities with communicating in their languages across the generations - preserving their language and identity so that they can flourish in their relationships. Rachel is keen to develop relationships and work with women and children through literacy education.

As a family including their two boys, Jack and Rachel want to continue welcoming people into their home, as a place to listen to guests and share their love and faith. They desire to see people in diaspora communities experience joy in embracing their language and culture whilst living in Australia, and ultimately, be a part of the kingdom of God. We appreciate your partnership in this ministry!
