Darcy and Leanne McAlister – Asia Missions and ZOE Leadership Development
Darcy and Leanne McAlister have a passion for leaders to lead from a place of health and wholeness. Darcy and Leanne use coaching, mentoring, marriage ministry, seminars and team building to accomplish this! They will be based in Asia for 6 months of the year, responding to the significant need and request for help from leaders in Asia. The other 6 months will be based in Canada serving the Canadian context in the same way, but with a focus on developing and resourcing women (ZOE Resources) and helping men and women lead together.
Asia Ministry Directors: Darcy and Leanne will serve as the leaders of our missions ministry in South East Asia. In Asia, national leaders are calling out for help in the “practical areas” of ministry. While they often feel prepared theologically for ministry, they regularly ask for help in the areas of marriage, families and self leadership. Access to these resources is often difficult because of their geographical location within restricted areas. Every conversation we had in Asia with leaders led to “please come. We need this help.”
ZOE Network Directors: Leanne leads ZOE Network in Canada with Darcy as an associate director. This global program includes connecting Canadian women to the work we do with women overseas and resourcing Canadian women as leaders.
