Only 24 days til KiwiSong 2010!

( A registered charitable entity with the charities commission 16.8.2010 )

KiwiSong is a Christian based music ministry which attracts students from different churches of New Zealand who desire to develop their knowledge and vision for their own ministry or may want to learn how to serve their own church more through music ministry.

KiwiSong is directed and managed by Bryce Perrett (ex Okaihau Baptist Pastor and Deputy Principal of Kaikohe Christian School)

Students of different levels, ages and interests attend KiwiSong and are fully supported by KiwiSong Staff. Students are able to build important contacts with one another and staff and seek direction and knowledge for ministry!

Our vision is to inspire and equip singers, songwriters, musicians, worship leaders and worship teams of New Zealand to use their gifts to bring glory to God and to impact the local church and our nation.

She has just completed her final grade in Trinity Guildhall Musical Theatre, and will complete her Diploma in Musical Theatre next year (God willing!).

staff_sue Sue O'Brien aka Mama Sue! Sue seeks after the heart of God and this is reflected in the unconditional love she has for people. Learning guitar at eight years old and first song "A new commandment" respectively, started an amazing journey of ministering the love of God through music. She says "Four chorded songs are great and an audience of one is even better!" One of Sue's most favourite chapters in the bible is Isaiah 61 as her heart desires to minister healing and restoration through prayers (songs) to the lives of the brokenhearted anywhere that God chooses to send her. The testimony of her first CD single "My Heart Sings" captures the essence of whom she is and who God has called her to be.

Sue has five children aged 20, 21, 24, 25 and 29 as well as three foster children 4mths, 12 and 21. They are a wonderful testimony of her love and dedication as their mother/caregiver rain or shine.
