THE RADIO WORLDWIDE TEAM

Danny and Ann Marie

Danny and Ann Marie joined the team in 1990, with a particular burden for the peoples of Central Asia. In previous years Danny has had considerable input into a media project in Central Asia. Ann Marie is involved in a new programme called Letters to my Daughers, which is aimed at Muslim women in Central Asia. In September last year, Danny and Ann Marie have taken on the leadership of Radio Worldwide. They have three sons, Daniel, Jonathan and Joshua.

Ivan and Ruth

Ivan has been producing programmes in the Hindi language since 1978 and edits the Hindi Magazine "Path-Pradarshak". His wife Ruth joined the team in 1986 and produces audio material in the English. She also has the overall responsibility for our Audio Prayer News. Ruth also helps with training.

Grace

Having joined RW in 1965 Grace is the longest serving member. These days, much of her time is taken up with book-keeping and administration, but she too has some input into both programming and training.

Christopher

Christopher worked as programme producer for FEBA Radio in India and the Seychelles before joining Radio Worldwide in 1989. Since 1992 Christopher has headed up RW's training ministry, arranging courses in the UK and overseas, so his responsibilities frequently take him away from home. Chris is married to Bela and they have two children, Anugrah and Abhishek.

Peter

An engineer by profession, Peter joined the team in 1998 to help primarily with technical development. He is now involved in computer programming, support and maintenance. He also gives some of his time to help with caring for the property.

Roger and Kathy

Roger and Kathy joined the team as longterm staff members in January 2004. Their first contact with RW was as students in July 1998, while they were still at Bible College. Since then they have served with Diguna and FEBA Radio in East Africa, before transferring to WEC International in 2003. The Stolls are the only members of our team not residing here in Rothwell. After having spent a year in France for language study, they are now in the process of moving to Togo in West Africa. They are seconded to IBRA Radio in order to set up and run a media training centre in Francophone Africa. They have 3 daughters, Elena, Fiona and Sydney.

Derek and Barbara

Derek and Barbara have been Associate Workers with WEC for many years. When RW was based in London, they gave one day a week to help with the ministry. Since the team moved to Rothwell, Derek and Barbara have been commuting to West Yorkshire and spending approximately one week every month helping the team. Derek does everything from PAT testing electrical equipment to troubleshooting mixer faults.

Mike

Mike is an electrician by profession, and first did some wiring for RW over 20 years ago. Since then he has worked as electrician at WEC's UK headquarters, until his 'retirement' in 1999, at which point he moved up to Yorkshire. He continues to help occasionally with electrical work at Radio Worldwide, and these days duplicates and sends out our monthly Audio Prayer News. He too is an Associate Worker.

Michael

Michael, also know as Scottie here at RW has been helping us since we moved to Rothwell in 1993. First of all we "employed" him as a builder, and it was him who helped building our studios among many other things. In 2007 Michael has finally become an RW associate and now has many responsibilities relating to the maintenance and upkeep of the buildings and property here in Rothwell. Scottie is also our driver, and he has a particular burden and interest to serve the local church and worldwide missions through our music recording studios.

Sue

Sue joined us as an associate in 2007 and has been a great help doing many tasks including admin for Ann Marie particularly. She is also the technical assistant for Letters to my Daughters, and lately she has been helping Ann Marie with "Arise", the Central Asian Women's conference.
