We're Rich and Christa Clark. We strengthen & encourage marriages & families in a culture that's losing hope.
We are a blended family and thriving couple from Tacoma, WA. We've been volunteering in the marriage and relationship space for 15 years and now have the thrill and honor to come on board with FamilyLife as full-time local missionaries with a focus on marriage & families.
We were both previously married and experienced divorces we didn't want. We know the pain and ripple effect of the trauma that divorce brings. Our boys know that pain, too. That is why we want to help everyone we can not only avoid the tragedy we experienced, but have a thriving marriage full of JOY!
We are raising up the foundation of many generations, in Jesus' name. (Isa 58:12)
Weekend to Remember (WTR) Ministry Reps in the PNW! There are over 70 WTR events across the US. In 2025, over 50,000 people attended whose marriages were impacted and there were almost 1,000 first time decisions for Jesus! Each person will hear practical tools for their marriage & family, but also hear a Gospel presentation. It is a practical work, and a holy work!
As Ministry Reps, we help discover, train & lead the volunteer teams that put on these weekend-long marriage retreats, and we do that in multiple cities. It's a tall order, but we're up for it and SO excited for the adventures! Between events, we network with other groups, churches, individuals who have a heart for marriages & families to promote a healthy marriage movement in the PNW.
As we connect with people from Boise, ID to Portland, OR and up to to Blaine, WA, little pockets of light offer hope for marriages and families start to develop, and as they grow, the PNW starts lighting up. Other parts of the US are starting to look at our corner of the world and ask, "What is happening over there?!" The only answer we can offer is God.
We believe God is doing a mighty thing here in the PNW for marriages and families, and we are so grateful to be a part of it!
Rich- Trust me. You’re going to have to trust me more than you ever have before.
Christa- Mine is a ministry of reconciliation. I died, not ONLY to cover your sin, but to be reconciled to YOU. I want to be near you.
Us- Hold everything with an open hand. Purge expectations, put your hope in ME, I do not disappoint.
