OUR LEADERSHIP

Together in
mission

We are down-to-earth people who love helping churches and individuals take their next step into mission. 
Practical support, straight talk, and careful stewardship.
Rob Reynolds
SIM NZ Director
I lead our team as we help churches across Aotearoa send and support mission workers with confidence. I love working with our team to come alongside church leadership to give practical support as they send their people and help their church family embrace global mission. When we do this well, those being sent can serve well for the long haul.

If you would like to explore what serving could look like or learn what partnership could look like for your church, we’d love to connect.

I work with churches and individuals who desire to understand and learn more about mission. I have the privilege of coming along side others who are journeying into mission, helping to discern what God might be promoting them towards, understanding the needs and opportunities globally and preparing to go and serve. I love that I get to do relationship, that and the joy of furthering God's kingdom are what motivate me.

If you have questions about if Missions is for you or would appreciate someone journeying with you as you discern how God is working on you, I'd love to have a conversation with you.

Helen Cowie
Personnel Director
It is a privilege for me to lead the personnel team as we work together on God’s mission with each one of us having a different part to play. In today’s changing world, we want to get the story out to people in New Zealand churches that global workers are still needed in missions. Great care is taken to help potential workers discern their global placement. I work with our team to ensure good practices are in place for all SIM workers to flourish in their lives and ministry.
