ECM NZ
ECM NZ is a registered charity with a small sending office in Aotearoa New Zealand, which supports people who feel called to share the Gospel in Europe. Many Christans in New Zealand are of European descent, and they have a deep concern for Europe and therefore want the message of the Gospel to be heard throughout the European continent.

The ECM NZ office works in close partnership with the Australian office who take care of the adminstration of funds, and give communication support. Click on this llink to visit the New Zealand office page: New Zealand 

Currently there is just one person working part-time in Aotearoa New Zealand. If you would like to join the team in NZ then please contact us. If you would like to support the work of ECM in NZ, then please click on the 'Donate now' button and follow the directions.

If you would like someone from ECM to speak to your church or mission's group about mission in Europe, then please contact us:

Facts


Economy
Economy heavily based on tourism, export of agricultural and forest products and, increasingly, a range of technological and software-based innovations. Reform in the 1980s and 1990s was painful but effective in propelling the economy forward. The loss of workforce and knowledge to emigration is sufficient to affect the economy; with 16% of all Kiwis living overseas, only Ireland has a higher percent of its population living abroad.

The statistics are meant to give an impression, not to stigmatise. Statistics taken from "Operation World, 7th edition, 2010", see also www.operationworld.org
