| We want to welcome Todd, Jeana, Joshua, Abby, and Titus O'Donnell each summer. Todd William O’ Donnell was born in Wellington, New Zealand. His earlier education consists of Brooklyn School, Wellington College, and Horowhenua College. In 1992, he left New Zealand to attend the East Tennessee School of Preaching and Missions where he graduated in 1994. From July 1994 through April 1995, Todd worked with the Central Church of Christ in Cleveland, Tennessee. On January 28, 1995, he married Jeana Danyell Rader. They now have three children: Joshua, Abby, and Titus. Todd and Jeana have worked with the Palmerston North Church of Christ, Wellington Church of Christ, and the Foxton church of Christ all in New Zealand. Todd has been involved in many New Zealand Campaigns for Christ which are intensive one week or two week door-knocking campaigns. There is a high emphasis on outreach in New Zealand among members of the Lord’s church. Many people are Atheist, Agnostic, or Skeptical yet there is still a place where people with good hearts can be found. For the months of May, June, July 2007 he has worked with the Central church of Christ primarily focusing on evangelism. He and several members have done local door-knocking, shared the gospel with many people in addition to conducting several home bible studies, and participated in two door-knocking campaigns (Hawesville, KY and De Land, FL). Future plans are to be back in Cleveland next summer the Lord willing. The main focus of the 2008 visit will be a local door-knocking campaign. From June 8th to June 15th, 2008, we will be reaching out to the city of Cleveland, TN with the good news. Make plans to come and participate in this effort. Contact the office here at Central for further information. |
