Work Visas

Good news! We received word today from Grand Cayman that our work visas have been approved. That means that we should be able to leave for our new field in about 7-10 days.

New Assignment ... Grand Cayman

As many of you know, we have been patiently (and often impatiently) waiting for our work visa to be completed so we can serve as missionaries in Aruba. The process has been long and frustrating. After several months of waiting, we have finally come to realize this is a closed door for our ministry. BUT ... a new door has opened quickly. We have been asked to go to Grand Cayman, an island in the Western Caribbean to minister. Grand Cayman is a small island (similar in size to Aruba) with a population of about 52,000.

There are currently 2 Assemblies of God churches on the island, First Assembly of God (http://www.firstassembly.com.ky/) and West Bay Assembly of God. We have been asked to serve as interim missionary pastors of West Bay Assembly due to the recent sudden death of their pastor. West Bay Assembly is the "daughter" church of First Assembly. The good news is that, in addition to serving as pastor, we will also be working in the areas of ministry that are very close to our hearts: church planting, discipleship, leadership training and development.


Thanks and appreciation to each of you (our churches, families and friends) that have stood by us and supported us through your encouragement, love, finances and prayers.


Visit to Grand Cayman

West Bay Assembly of God


In April we traveled to Grand Cayman Island in the Western Caribbean to met with the leadership of the islands. Rev. Torrance Bobb is an incredible pastor and leader. He is not only the General Superintendent of the islands, he is also senior pastor of First Assembly of God in George Town, Grand Cayman. The church has "mothered" another congregation, West Bay Assembly of God in the West Bay area of the island. We were asked to minister at both churches on April 25th. At the conclusion of the service, 3 people prayed and asked the Lord to come into their lives! Thank the Lord!
