It's been 200 years since two young women in India conceived a vision which led to the beginnings of Interserve and its quest of wholistic mission, of faith in action amongst the peoples of Asia and the Arab world. 200 years later we are still going strong, and are celebrating and committing to press on.

We would love for you to join the celebration. Our guest speaker Chitra is a passionate Jesus-follower and Interserve partner from India. She is a social worker who envisions transforming cultures of violence into cultures of peace. You will be inspired and find her passion engaging, as she shares how to live sustainably within her cultural context, redeeming and empowering communities.

Come along for an exciting day including a Celebration Lunch with yummy Indian food, and a range of international ISV guests. They include our International Director Dr Bijoy Koshy, Australian National Director Dr Christine Gobius, Regional Director Dr Lyn Pearson, Dr Cathy Hine, Chitra Ramaswamy, and others from various ISV locations.

An extra highlight of the day will be the renewing of our Maori name, strengthening our journey with tangata whenua. And we will usher in a new season for Interserve Aotearoa NZ under a next generation of leadership, marked by a ceremonial transition from the outgoing to the new National Leader.

Programme kicks off at 9am sharp, registrations open at 8.15am.
