John Henry’s Experience
-
Founder
Missionary Consultant
(Religious Institutions industry)
November 2008 — Present (1 year 2 months)
First “do”, then “teach.” This is the YWAM principle which I believe will make me a valued consultant for your group. After 23 years of faith missions and mobilization of mission teams to over 50 countries, I have served many churches and groups navigating today’s fast changing world. After years of experience and intensive training at Fuller Seminary’s School of Intercultural Studies, my services have proved valuable to ministry church leaders. Contact me if you would appreciate help navigating the changing world of church and mission.

Founder & President
UofN Student Mobilization Centre
(Religious Institutions industry)
January 1996 — Present (14 years )
The UofN Student Mobilization Centre is an international network serving campus ministers and university students on every continent.
During the past few years, my ministry “gift cluster” has become more apparent and I have been investing more time with a “few” leaders I have invited onto my ministry’s international committee. These leaders are from Korea, India, China, Kenya, Canada, and the USA. The result has been an exponential growth of effectiveness in ministry as well as the development of a new 12-week training program we led for the first time in New Delhi in 2004, the School of University Ministries (SUM). We have a director for Field Ministry Internships, a director for International Student Ministries, and Indian, European, and African Regional Centre Directors. The second SUM took place in 2006 in Bangalore and one is scheduled to take place in Thailand in 2008. -
