United in their love for Africa
Staff Story: The Kimbers

TWR is thrilled to have a seasoned missionary couple, Graham and Jean Kimber, and their two young daughters, Jessica (6) and Bernice (4) join the TWR team in Swaziland.

"We were very encouraged at the way the Lord prepared the way for us to work with TWR," says Graham.
Missions work has been a theme in their lives since their love story began. They first met in the early 1990s when they were both working as missionaries in the Seychelles, and they later married in 2006.

Providing Ministry Opportunities for Students

It's the Summer Holidays! This is something that University students always look forward to. However, for some students, they want to use this 'free time' to exercise their skills in the field of their relevant studies, but not just anywhere. They want to use what they have learnt in the Missions Field to serve God. TWR provides an internship program that gives students, who are at least two years into University, an opportunity to work according to their field of studies in various regions around the world. While out in the field, they'll get to work on various projects with a Mentor who will also be their Father/Mother figure while away from home.

Staff Story: Creatively & Diligently Serving God Together

David and Flora Rittenhouse are a powerful yet humble husband and wife team that have been working as missionaries with TWR for over three decades. David has served with TWR Africa since 2005 in various roles, most notably as TWR Africa’s accountant and Zimbabwe Ministry Director for several years. Flora served the region first as Communications Coordinator and in recent years as Project Hannah assistant. She also used her skills of writing and photography where opportunities arose.

After having served in the Africa region for eight years, the Rittenhouses are relocating to serve at TWR’s International Corporate Offices later this month. We asked colleagues who worked with them closely, to share about the David and Flora’s life and work in Africa.

MARVELLER & STEWARD OF GOD'S CREATION
Staff Story: Matthew Burnett

"If I can't walk outside for the day then I am in the wrong line of work."

Put on your good walking shoes, a hat, and grab your binoculars! If you're visiting Matthew Burnett, of TWR West Africa, you'll need to be ready to spend lots of time outdoors!

Meet Matthew Burnett. He may have grown up with missionary parents, but isn't your typical missionary. Matthew is active, practical and loves the outdoors. He is a short term (one year) missionary serving at the TWR transmitter station in West Africa. He began his mission in January 2013 and will be there until the end of 2013.
