Mark Johnson and Kirsty Resink have led the wonderfully diverse and eccentric St Tom’s Church in Newtown, Wellington since 2015. Mark was also the Supervising Chaplain at Victoria University from 2011 to 2017. Prior to coming to New Zealand, Mark was the director of the Minneapolis base of Steiger International (a ministry that came out of YWAM in Amsterdam) and pastor of The Salvage Yard Church, a church to the counter culture (punks, hippies, artists, musicians, and university students) that was planted out of that ministry. Kirsty and Mark currently live in Newtown with their two boys, Micah (13 yrs old) and Lukas (10 years old). For the last five years they have also led a team (St Tom’s on Wheels) that has functioned as a traveling Jesus Community that brings the love of God to the new age hippie scene at festivals and in towns across New Zealand.
