ONE PURPOSE
Bringing
real peace to
TURKEY
On 25th April 1915, the New Zealand and Australian
Army Corps landed on the Gallipoli Peninsula with the
objective to open the Dardanelles to the Allied Forces.
The resistance of the defenders of the Ottoman Empire
(now Turkey) was fierce, terrifying and brutal. The ‘so
called’ ‘gallant strategy’ turned into an eight month
stalemate which resulted in over 7,991 NZ causalities,
including 2,779 kiwi boys who died of battle wounds
or disease and never came home.

We also want to be in a position to continue to support
the INT Team as they carry on to care for the tens of
thousands of refugees from Syria who have fled across
the border to Turkey to find peace and security in a war
torn region.
Will you help us bring real peace to
this ancient war torn land?
At the beginning of the 21st century International
Needs Turkey (INT) began its ministry in Turkey that
included Turkish descendants of Gallipoli soldiers.
To mark the 100th Anniversary of the landings at
Gallipoli, International Needs New Zealand (INNZ) in
partnership with INT are planning to produce and
distribute 10,000 booklets (printed in Turkish and
English) on ‘what brings real peace’. This will be
handed out to the 1000’s of folk that will attend ANZAC
and Turkish remembrance gatherings in Turkey during
the month of April.

Bougainville work
strives for self-sufficiency
Their one and only solution, after much discussion and two
trips by NZ board member Kit Jensen (at his own expense),
is to make their partly completed guesthouse operational.
It is planned that there will be ten double bedrooms on the
first floor. There is room and plans to build ten more below.
It also needs a toilet and shower block to make it fully
functional.
It is well located by the Buka
passage between the two islands,
where water taxi boats take
people from the main island, to
the island of Buka. At present the
main airport is at Buka. It is not far
from the transportation hub
where trucks leave to take people
all over the main island. Their
target guests are locals who come
to Buka to sell produce and do
business.
Our target is $50,000 to complete

the guesthouse. Our board member, Kit Jensen, has offered
to oversee the project. We believe that when the
guesthouse is working at capacity, it will not only
supplement the existing ministry work, but will have funds
that they can set aside to grow new ministries. We have a
team from a church in the Waikato that are exploring the
possibility of helping with the build later in the year, perhaps
there are other churches that might be keen to lend a hand
to fundraise and help build?
Self-sustainability is one of our core values, and by helping
make this guesthouse a reality it will ensure a viable source
of funds for the future and break their dependency for much
of their income to come from overseas.
How can you help make this happen?
Donate Money
If everyone who gets this appeal letter gave $100 then we
would be more than well on our way to reach our goal.
Donate Skills
If your church has some practical people, why not put a
team together and come to Buka and work on the
guesthouse project?
Donate Time
Pray for the work of Kidron Ministries (our IN partner in
Bougainville), that it might prosper and grow as it
evangelises and plants churches in this young island nation.

2|2015-Appeal 1
Our work in Bougainville really needs your help! Their
major donor in NZ has announced they are planning to
reduce the annual amount they send. This will threaten the
viability of their work as church offerings at present, are not
enough to support most pastors as many of the churches
are quite new church plants.
