Welcome to our page! We are the Ingrams, but you can call us Ty and Karle. We have been married for 8 years, we have four children. Three beautiful girls, Zion, Eden and Aliza. We also have a wonderful answer to prayer, our son Tyronne III. We gave our lives to Christ  in 2019 and we are pleased to share with you what God is doing in and through our life. 

On May 4, 2024, we were commissioned as full-time missionaries and assigned to work with Cru® Inner City Detroit to help  mobilize the church to live out God's heart for the poor.

The Reality: We realize that there is a prevalent connection between those living in poverty and animosity toward God. There are people struggling in various aspects of life and blame God for their reality or simply believe that He does not care about them. 

Our vision for ministry: We believe that God has called us to become missionaries to effectively carry out the Great Commission in the city of Detroit to “seek and save the lost” and to help them grow into disciples of Jesus Christ. 

How does Cru fit in: Cru Inner City Detroit partners with the local churches in and around the metro Detroit area by providing resources for the church to use as an evangelism tool to reach out to individuals and families in their community. Some examples of that would be Homeless Care Kits, Boxes of Love® filled with Thanksgiving meals, Powerpacks® filled with school supplies, and Easter Bags. Not only do we provide tangible items to minister to physical needs, but we also provide training in evangelism and discipleship. During our evangelism trainings, we come alongside our church partners by going out with them to share the gospel in their neighborhoods. 

After reaching our goal of becoming fully funded, we will be able to report to our positions with the Detroit team. Tyronne will be training for the role of Team Director and Karle will be transitioning from a part-time to a full-time position as Communications Coordinator.
