Kevin & Jillian Connole

Kevin and Jillian joined Wycliffe NZ in their mid-50s, after serving in pastoral ministry around NZ for many years. In 2018, they arrived at the Mara Cluster Project in Musoma, North-West Tanzania, to serve as support workers for a team translating eight New Testaments simultaneously. Sadly, the rapid worldwide spread of Covid19 in March 2020 caused their repatriation to NZ (New Plymouth). Since their return to NZ, Jillian has been able to continue to serve the Mara Project remotely as part of the Linguistics Department, and has trained as a typesetter, working with other projects in East Africa. Kevin has recently retired after serving as Associate Director for the Wycliffe NZ home office.
