Welcome Jocelyn Czerwonka, Regional Coordinator for the Bay of Plenty, Eastland, Hawkes Bay, Waikato, Taranaki in New Zealand. Jocelyn joins Richard Stevens and Angela Brown in the new NZ Regional Coordinator team. Please pray as we endeavour to develop this team further.
Jocelyn says: ‘Kia ora koutou (Greetings everyone). I’m feeling blessed to be part of the National Messy Church team in Aotearoa, New Zealand. I’ve been involved with ministry with children and youth for many years, worked as a registered nurse and now work as the Koru Ministry Leader for the Anglican Diocese of Waiapu. Koru Ministry focuses on ministry with children, youth and families. My role enables me to support leaders of Messy Church and facilitate Cluster Groups around the diocese. I’m married to Alex, who is vicar of St Luke’s Rotorua, where together we and our fabulous team run Messy Church. Alex and I have three adult children and three delightful granddaughters.’
