Appointed in 2006, Julia – a primary school teacher – arrived in Brazil at the end of July 2007. After studying Portuguese in Fortaleza and getting to know about Brazilian culture, both inside and outside the churches she moved up to the state of Maranhão, north Brazil, to support the work of establishing the pre-school education programme (PEPE) in poor and marginalised communities in that part of the country.
Julia is from Canterbury Baptist Church.
