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.
How do Verwer Hession do that??
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.

We rely on your donations to keep going
Both Roy Hession and 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.
