Sponsor Jeff and Paula

My GFA Story

My wife Paula and I have been serving with Gospel for Asia since 2001. Before and after we were married we had been actively involved with our church. In the late 1990's God placed more and more of a burden on our hearts for those who have never heard the name of Jesus Christ. We began praying with other Christians around the world for all people to hear of the love of Christ and soon began hearing about the amazing work God is doing around the world. I began asking God to show me what He would have us do to join in the work He is doing. Paula and I both long for our children's and our lives to really count for eternity. After reading "Revolution in World Missions" we discovered what God has been doing in south Asia and were really excited about the opportunity to be a part of the amazing work He is doing through Gospel for Asia.

What I do

Jeff serves as the Donor Operations Manager, working behind the scenes to help connect sponsors with their national worker or child, answer questions about their accounts, It also involves overseeing our Donor Relations and Call Center areas and helps with mail runs to Wills Point and Dallas. Jeff helps lead worship at prayer meetings and is also the sound team leader for GFA World, providing sound system setup and operational support for prayer meetings and any events hosted at GFA’s campus. Paula serves part time in the Donor Relations department, taking care of recurring credit card donations, opening and sorting mail and various other tasks as needed. Paula also helps on the worship team during GFA's monthly Ladies Meeting and at Tuesday night or Friday night prayer meetings. We are both very blessed to be a part of the work God is doing to see many in South Asia come to know Jesus’s love. All of our daughters have served or volunteered at GFA World in some capacity over the years, but currently we are empty nesters. It has taken some getting used to, but we are so thankful that God has kept His hand on our daughters as they have followed the Lord and are starting their own families.
