No cost
There is 'no cost' as we have a special passion for the editors of Christian mission societies and the many smaller forgotten Christian media outlets. It's philosophy is to provide a top-of-the-line presentation to the 'forgotten Christian media- Missionary/mission publication editors, bloggers and small Christian media.
The top of the line presenters give their time at no cost so as to ensure such mission agencies received a thorough concordant. And it's close to Tullamarine Airport, Mooney Ponds Salvation Army: 880 Mount Alexander Rd.
