Brief Background:

During our college years, we realized the profound impact of a personal relationship with Jesus Christ on our lives. Since then, our goal has been to meet with future world leaders, introduce them to Jesus, and equip them to become people who transform their nations with the power of the Gospel.

I [Jeff] encountered Christ during his freshman year when a fellow student shared the Gospel with him in the '86-87 school year. 

Marci's faith journey began through her mother's influence while growing up. Both of us actively participated in Cru, assuming leadership roles during our time at Minnesota State University at Mankato from 1987 to 1991.

In 1991, we officially joined the Cru staff, embarking on a fulfilling journey that led us to serve in various locations including Florida, Kiev Ukraine, Iowa State University, The Greater Iowa team, Bridges Int'l regional field staff, and now I oversees nine midwestern states as a Bridges Mission Director, based in Des Moines, IA.

Present Responsibility: 

Our current mission is to serve and mobilize the international student community in the USA and abroad through the collaboration of students, faculty, staff, pastors, and local volunteers on campuses nationwide. Our work is made possible through Bridges International, a non-profit Christian organization under Cru. 

Thank you for partnering with us through your prayers and generosity. You truly are making a difference and having a global impact for eternity!
