Key Note Speakers

Drs Malcolm and Cheryl Bollen

20 years ago Drs Cheryl and Malcolm Bollen responded to a call to local mission in Whangarei. Along with their local church they developed a Christian medical centre to serve those who were struggling to afford the care that they needed. They have been privileged to have a practice with a high percentage of Maori patients and have enjoyed the journey of growing to understand the Maori worldview. Many of their patients value holistic care and prayer and spiritual encouragement can be offered naturally.

They have raised their own four children and fostered two more for periods of time. In recent years Malcolm, Cheryl and their family have become involved in youth work through a camp on the Whangarei Harbour. This has sparked the beginnings of a new journey to explore "intentional community" with a focus on reaching out to youth who have lost their way. They are hoping that a youth health centre will be born in 2013, which will offer free health care to marginalized youth and create pathways towards wholeness in partnership with other faith-based organisations.
