Dayspring Ministries seeks to proclaim the Christian gospel to rarely visited Pacific Island people, and to communicate the truths of the life, the teachings, the death and the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ. Where there are Christians, the calling is to build them up in their faith.
The intention with God's blessing is to both continue and expand upon the work undertaken by Ron and Aggie Russell as they sailed throughout the Pacific over the last 35 years. During this time they visited hundreds of islands with teams from the South Pacific Bible Society and Campus Crusade for Christ, and shared the Gospel with unbelievers. However in June 2005 their yacht Dayspring III foundered on a reef off Wallis Island, effectively closing the chapter of Ron and Aggie's remarkable work.
Discussions with Ron and Aggie and their Mission partners have confirmed that the need to reach the island nations of the South Pacific with the Gospel remains as vital as ever. Our prayer is that the new Dayspring Ministries will continue this work.
