Colin & Norma Peckham
Artists in Christian Testimony
Colin and Norma Peckham are serving with Artists in Christian Testimony International, heading up arts ministry in South Africa and Scotland. They work with local churches, organizations and prisons to present evangelistic outreach events, and events aimed at church unity using choirs, bands, orchestras and dramatic presentations.
The Peckhams produce online and printed resources aimed at getting university students (in Scotland) and tourists (in Scotland and South Africa) into local churches. They work with others in racial reconciliation in Cape Town through their ministry with the Cape Town Gospel Choir. They provide training in music to previously disadvantaged members of the South African community.
Together with a large team of volunteers in both countries, the Peckhams use culturally relevant materials to form a connection with a lost world and share Jesus in both innovative and traditional ways. They work in churches, public spaces and prisons, and wherever they are invited to go. Their aim is to see people turn to Jesus, and for Christians to be challenged to deeper commitment to Christ and to love one another as Jesus loved the world.
