After lots of prayer, meetings, forms, and evaluations, we were officially notified today that we have been appointed to serve as long-term missionaries with Trans World Radio (TWR). We anticipate that we will serve on Bonaire, a small Dutch island off the coast of Venezuela, South America, but we are willing to go wherever we are needed most.
Our next step of the process is to gather a team of prayer and financial supporters who will commit to partner with us as we minister with TWR long-term. We pray that God will help us clearly present the ministry to those He has chosen to partner with us. Please pray alongside us for strength and safety as we will be traveling a lot and our schedules will be busy.
We are also gathering information for those folks who would like more information and/or want to receive updates in the mail. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you fit into this category. We will still be updating this website but would love to you connect with you on a more personal level. Thanks for your love and prayers.

Reach Higher
Hey guys! Thanks to everyone for praying - we had a safe trip there and back. Also, our prayers were answered in every way possible. God provided travel protection (we nearly missed a flight - but made it just in time), clear vision, financial provision, Christian fellowship, and a very refreshing time as well.
Although we still have some more steps in the appointment process, God has shown us very clearly what our next step is. The ministry that is being accomplished from Bonaire is absolutely incredible. There are hundreds of house churches in Cuba that meet DAILY because of the ministry of TWR in that region. There are over 800,000 confirmed TWR listeners in Cuba and over 3.5 million in Venezuela. Over 3,000 pastors from Columbia owe their salvation and much of their Bible training to TWR as well. There are remote villages in the jungles of Brazil that meet DAILY to hear God's Word taught to them in their own language.
I believe that God calls every believer to serve Him wholeheartedly wherever he or she is. I also believe that God uses our past experiences and our passions to direct us in how we serve in ministry. The incredible ministry of TWR on Bonaire cannot be properly maintained or expanded without adequate staff. After meeting the staff currently serving there and seeing firsthand what God is doing there – we feel led to partner with them in spreading the Gospel message throughout that region. I (Brandon) feel that many of my passions, education, and experiences have prepared me to fill the need and work alongside other dedicated Christ-followers at the Bonaire station. He has prepared and equipped Laura to assist me in this service. We plan to proceed in pursuing this opportunity unless God directs us otherwise.
We covet your prayers and continued support in the coming months. Thanks again to all who have already been praying – please continue! And to those who have supported financially – Thank you!
We plan to keep you all informed as we progress through this process. Below, you will find a link to a video recently produced by TWR. It gives a glimpse of how anyone can use their talents, skills, passions, and abilities to serve the Lord throughout the world. Whatever you do – wherever you do it – do it to the glory of God! Thanks and may God richly bless each of you!
