Joe & Karin (with their beautiful daughters Esther & Sophia) are our missionaries in Nairobi Kenya serving through Life Challenge

Life Challenge is a mission dedicated to the training and resourcing of local Christians in lovingly sharing the Gospel with their Muslim neighbours. Hawkesbury Valley supports the Medleys and rejoices that they are part of our church family.

The Medley Family were part of our church here in Sydney for nearly a decade and built many relationships here. They left for mission service to Kenya in 2019. Joe and Karin have served as missionaries for 30 + years. They are humble, Godly people whose deepest desire is to lift Jesus up and see lives transformed through God's glory. Gifted in leadership, discipleship, and service, and with a beautiful ability to meet people where they are at, God has placed them as support leaders in Life Challenge, which also uses their giftings in creativity and communication. Please pray for them as they negotiate the challenges of cross-cultural ministry and discipleship in this exciting and challenging field.

"Pray also for me, that whenever I speak, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel," Ephesians 6:19
