Story
Welcome to this JustGiving page, set up to bless our good friends, Sammi and Sefo!
In 2011, during their time with YWAM New Zealand, the two of them met and fell in love. Married in 2012, they continued their work with YWAM NZ until January 2015, when they made the decision to move to Ireland, working with a church plant and getting themselves full time jobs.
In March 2016, they moved to the UK and applied for a residency visa for Sefo (from Tonga) under the EU law. However, this was denied.
They have been to see a solicitor for legal advice and are now gathering more evidence to submit a new application. In order to keep Sefo in the UK and re-apply, they still need to raise £850 to cover legal fees and the application fee.
Sammi and Sefo are an amazing couple. Sefo is currently working hard as an intern at our church, and Sammi is working with the youth. We absolutely want to do everything we can to keep them together in the UK!

8 years agoWOW!! Incredibly blown away by all your support! Completely smashed the target. Sammi and Setho are incredibly grateful, and this will be such a blessing to them as they fight the finiancial burden of the process. Although the target has been met, if you still feel as though you would like to give, the money will be indeed saved in order to fund further costs incurred. Tom x
