| Introduction | John has a bachelor's in Education, Tarleton State University (Texas A&M System)in Stephenville, TX and a master's, Trinity College of the Bible & Seminary (He cringes at creditials, primarily because though education can open doors and provide avenues of skill, he knows that God doesn't call the qualified; he qualifies the called). John been a youth pastor since he was 19 years old. Approaching two decades of student ministry has only fueled his passion for discipleship and what it means to live out God's Word. Now, we can finally add and announce that June 2011 God confirmed our call to Haiti as full time missionaries! Moved to Haiti Dec. 2011. He met Christi in college and together they directed Week Extreme Youth Camps in the U.S. and Haiti for ten years. Christi was a Social Work student also striving to obtain her EMT certification for Haiti Missions. "We embrace diversity...serving and loving is our passion. Our life is a mission field. We are consumed by the Call to leave a legacy, see lives changed and souls saved for God's glory!" |
