Malawi
Ryan and Justine serve with a team at Namikango Mission in Southern Malawi, integrating Community Health Evangelism (CHE) into the work that involves a Bible school, maternity clinic, and Village Savings and Loans program. Ryan serves as the Development Director, overseeing the CHE and VSL programs that holistically empower communities to address the needs of their families and the community as a whole.
Ryan and Justine met while serving in Nairobi, Kenya, and were married in 2012. After their marriage, they were asked to join the work in Malawi due to the pressing need for economic empowerment to go alongside Biblical teaching in rural areas. They transitioned there in 2014, and have a heart to see the communities that Namikango works with provide for their families and care for the needy, crossing barriers to physically show the love of Jesus.
They are the parents of three children: Amelie (2014), Lily (2016) and Rylee (2018).
