Exciting News to Share
Visionwest Waka Whakakitenga is pleased to announce that, as of 30 June 2026, Iosis has formally become part of the Visionwest whānau.
In welcoming Iosis into the whānau, Visionwest receives a rich taonga of Baptist care, community connection, and practical experience.
Formally incorporated in 2006, Iosis brought together the experience and legacies of several historic Baptist mission initiatives, with roots that reach back to the 1890s. This longstanding legacy of care can now continue, strengthened by shared purpose and a wider network of support.
