The Richards Family
Tom and Margaret, with their four children (Sam, Lucy, Tim & Annie), began ministry on the island of Tanna, Vanuatu in March, 2013. There, Tom taught at the Southern Islands Presbytery Bible College and provided support to local mission workers. At the start of 2018, they moved to Santo where Tom has taken up a position at the Talua Theological Training Institute, developing curriculum for the 6 certificate-level Presbyterian colleges in Vanuatu.
At the beginning of 2022, the Richards’ family moved back to Perth. Tom is now ministering to Vanuatu from Australia. This involves developing curriculum, teaching via zoom and running an electronic ministry over the internet to the people training at Talua Theological College.

Jews for Jesus
From the Jews for Jesus website: We seek to relate to the church, asking for your prayers and financial participation. We need you to send us Jewish contacts and let us be an outsource to you in this regard especially. Many Christians who attend the local churches where we preach know Jewish people or work with colleagues who are Jewish. Our messages in churches are designed to help the believers know how to share with these friends, and to inspire them to do so. Christians also tell us that when they meet Jews who have found Messiah that they are encouraged that anyone can get saved!
