He explained that you can classify the unreached in several different ways: by geography, by language, and by occupation. […]

It has been pretty crazy around here…which isn’t unusual right before Jeff leaves on a mission, but a kidney stone wasn’t how we wanted to start the week. None the less, it’s how it started and not even a kidney stone can stop Jeff from his assignment. We’ve learned that if you just keep pressing

This is in an effort to stop Cuba’s communist government from helping Venezuela’s communist government. As soon as the news broke about these restrictions, we began getting

In April, Jeff took a team from Camden, AL to Cuba for our first ever marriage conference. Five married couples went to share with other married couples what a Godly marriage looks like. They shared Truth with grace and love to hurting people. Sharing life experiences and how God was able to heal and mend

It was amazing to hear the God stories from each member of the team and to see the Lord making those stories happen before our eyes. One such story happened while I was out sharing my story in the neighborhood. Jeff, Gail, and our translator, Albert, and I had the opportunity to be on a

On December 26 a group of men went with Jeff to Nepal. Our mission is always the Gospel, and this trip we also added water filters into the mix. Sawyer International is partnering with us to get water filters into the hard to reach places. It was an incredible honor for these guys to bring
