"Mal's encouragement and expansive ideas have been priceless. He has challenged not only us, but also our leaders to think outside the box of standard church thinking. Mal's relevant way of presenting cells helped our young people catch the true values behind cell and the reason for cells in the current youth culture. His passion is to see the Kingdom of God advanced and has worked together with us and our local church vision to see the youth ministry thrive and become all it can be for God." Shayne, Lorinda & Dan - New Hope Church, Toowoomba Qld. High School & Young Adults Leaders |

"It is my pleasure to endorse the ministry of Mal Thompson and Youth Cells Australia. His input into our key leaders and their efforts to reach youth has been outstanding. He is a wonderful pastor and equipper. He understands leadership, has fostered and guided the development of that in our key people beautifully. At the same time he has been very aware of our leaders schedules and needs and has helped them understand key underlying issues such as communication (ranging from between youth leaders and parents to senior leadership) and time management. He is a man of prayer and has inspired our whole church to new levels of prayer and God seeking. He is passionate for souls and leaves that deposit within those he works with. Mal has a great ability to identify key underlying values issues and challenge or encourage them while being sensitive to the unique DNA of any given church and works within the parameters of the vision and values humbly and effectively. More than that Mal has been an encouragement and inspiration to me personally and always has a faith word for what the church is facing. If you’re serious about building cells to reach young people (or any people!), I urge you to pray about entering a partnership with Mal and Jane." Chris Mulhare, Senior Pastor - New Hope Church, Toowoomba |

“I believe with all my heart that meeting Mal and Jane Thompson was God placing mentors in my life that helped me to continue in Youth ministry as long as I have. Mal was someone that I looked up to, a great guy with years of youth experience and a youth group to covet (if we were allowed of course!). I am so happy to know Mal and Jane and the time I have spent with them they have imparted great treasures that will be wisdom in my heart forever. They are truly mentors that young youth ministers need.” Pastor Katie Haldane, Youth Pastor, Crossroads City Church NSW |

“For the past decade Mal and Jane have played a major role in my development as a youth leader. It's like the old learning to ride a bike analogy - first they'll believe in you, then they'll walk beside you, next they'll run with you - encouraging you and challenging you to be all you can be in Christ - then finally they'll take off those training wheels and release you, just when you least expect it, into the place of leadership God has for you. They are good, real good! Mal and Jane are the best! It wasn't always easy but I wouldn't be where I am today if it weren't for them.” Kristie Wauchope, Grace Community Church, NSW |
