Brian and Lisa recently celebrated their 30th anniversary in June. They have three adult children, Elijah, Isaiah, and Olivia. All of whom are happily married. They have two grandchildren, with a third on the way, and two dogs.  Global and domestic travel, spending time with friends, savoring coffee, being outdoors, and riding rollercoasters are a few of their favorite things.  Both of them thoroughly enjoy music and reading, although their reading list look quite a bit different.

This couple has been in ministry for 30+ years.  During that time, they have served in a variety of roles.  Brian has been a youth pastor, church planter, associate pastor, and senior pastor.  Lisa has served as a children’s ministry director and is a veteran educator.  She has also been an incredibly faithful and loving mother and pastor’s wife.  Both have been heavily involved in foreign missions.  They have planned and led trips, and Brian has invested much time sowing into foreign pastors, while training, equipping, and encouraging them in their work.

A NOTE FROM BRIAN: “We are grateful to be a part of what God is doing at CLI, and we look forward to everything the Lord has in store.  We are honored to serve the Kids at CLI, and to partner with the parents, amazing volunteers, and leaders as we all endeavor to follow the Holy Spirit’s leading so that Jesus is glorified.”

A NOTE FROM LISA: "I am excited about what the Lord is doing in our CLI family and how He is moving in the lives of our kids. I know that there are great things ahead.”
