Our Mission

The Verwer Hession Trust was established to keep the memory of two beloved Christian authors alive and to ensure that their publications will continue to be available to the general public.

We steward the legacies

of Roy Hession and

George Verwer's literature

We rely on donations to keep going

Both Roy Hession are George Verwer were deeply humble men who rejected material wealth for a life of service. When they set up this Trust, they could only provide a modest sum to support it. All donations go directly towards our mission.

Before he passed,

Roy Hession asked for some of his money to be used to set up a charitable Trust to be created in his name

It was given the task of continuing to spread his message and make sure that his work was always available and acting as stewards of his legacy.

George Verwer requested that his intellectual property, his literature and books be handed over to the trust

George had immense respect for Roy, and felt that both their goals could be served in a shared trust.

The Verwer
Hession Trust

Established 1993

Since the merging of the trusts, we have continued to faithfully serve the Christian missions of Roy and George, striving to uphold their legacy to the next generation.

"When God is leading us to challenge another, let not fear hold us back. Let us not argue or press our point. Let us just say what God has told us to and leave it there. It is God’s work, not ours, to cause the other to see it".

Roy Hession

"I believe the reason many Christians are so dull and lifeless in their faith is because they are not in the battle, not using their weapons, not advancing against the enemy".

George Verwer
