Barry Magee, a veteran Olympian, reminds us that the heart of a champion is found in service. 21 Aug 24

We had the incredible honour of meeting none other than Barry Magee, New Zealand's oldest Olympian! He's the bronze medallist from the 1960 Rome Olympics, and let me tell you, chatting with him was nothing short of inspiring.

For Barry, the most significant moment in his life wasn’t about winning medals or achieving victories on the world stage. Instead, it was the night he committed his entire life to God. To him, it’s not just about how you start the race but how you finish that truly counts.

Thanks to the team from Leprosy Mission New Zealand and Barry for sharing his wisdom and support for those affected by leprosy. It was an honour to be in the presence of such an amazing person
