Our Ministry
God has put a love for the people of Asia in our hearts. Our main goal is to build a team of national men who will plant a church, and who will then carry that work forward into more churches. The plan has three phases.
Phase one is a one-year internship in the city to begin learning the language and culture. This gives us the insights we need to avoid major pitfalls, correct our misconceptions, and build relationships.
Phase two is team development. Over two to three years we will disciple a team of nationals to lead the church we plan to plant. Through Bible study, discipleship, and assigned fieldwork, these prospective church planters will be prepared to lead the project, while we keep learning the language and culture.
Phase three takes the team into the target area to begin evangelism, Bible studies, prayer meetings, and community ministry. Our strong hope is to see this church branch out into daughter churches.
About Us
Our missionary was born in Michigan and grew up in a Christian home. Through the witness of his parents and church, he trusted Christ as his Savior at a young age. Just after high school, during a pivotal season, a visiting missionary's presentation planted a seed for foreign missions in his heart, and God made His purpose clear during that Sunday service.
He went on to complete three years at Frontier School of the Bible, earning an associate's degree in biblical studies. There he met his wife, and there both of their children were born.
His wife was born in Pennsylvania and grew up in a Christian home. She accepted Christ as her Savior at age five after hearing the gospel at church, but she did not begin a real walk with Him until nineteen. Since then her life has been devoted to God and to seeking what He would have her do.
She was twenty-one when God made clear that her life was meant for foreign missions. For over a decade she has sought Him to prepare and send her, through full-time ministry, short-term trips, Bible schooling (where she met her husband), and starting a family.
