As we witness the emergence of a truly global Church we, like many other mobilizers, recognize the importance of a global-level platform for communication and cooperation. GMN exists for that very vision. This program is a series of dialogues between mobilizers from all dimensions. Hosted by the CCO/Collaboration Director of GMN, Ray Peng (Taiwan), we expect a great journey listening to one another.

In this episode, we’re pleased to have Alain and Rita Haudenschild in Switzerland, who were long-time missionaries in Taiwan, share how they were called by God to minister the Chinese, as well as their journey transitioning from front-line missionaries to a mobilizer (Alain) and a missionary coach (Rita).
Rita, growing up in a traditional Catholic home, committed her life to Jesus at age 21. Only a few months later she read a book about Hudson Taylor, and immediately God uplifted the passion inside her heart to follow Taylor’s footstep and serve in the Chinese land. Separately, God put similar seeds in Alain’s mind when he took a Chinese lesson taught by a Taiwanese lady in his church in South German. Suddenly he had a huge interest in Chinese culture that he never had before. Even before knowing each other, Alain and Rita had been prepared by God, separately, to minister in Chinese-speaking people, while there were almost no Chinese in their own communities.
About the guests
After dedicating 25 years in Taiwan for church planting and mission movement development, Alain and Rita Haudenschild returned to Switzerland in 2016 and began a new phase in their ministry. Currently, Alain serves in the Association of Evangelical Missions (AEM) of Switzerland, and focuses on building an infrastructure to help mission leaders and mission organizations send out more missionaries. On the other hand, Rita ministers as a SEND coach and mentor for Asia and in Europe, and she enjoys guiding and encouraging other missionaries using her many years of cross-cultural missionary experience.
