Ryan and Ashleigh Lang

Ashleigh grew up between Taranaki and (the mighty) Manawatū. Ryan was born in Pakistan and grew up between there and Aotearoa. Ash and Ryan crossed paths in Auckland and got to know each other washing dishes after a series of dinners with friends. They share a deep love for God and people, story and art. They love conversations over a cuppa and helping to open spaces for people to meet with God. Ash works as a nurse in emergency care, and Ryan teaches at Venn Foundation and Laidlaw College. They live in Māngere Bridge under an old pōhutukawa tree, home also to a family of herons.
