Meet the Team
E + K
E&K have worked in Greece since 2015. First on the island of Lesvos and then in Athens. Their vision is to equip and empower disciples to reach their own cultures and people groups through
disciple making and church planting. They enjoy evangelism, teaching, discipling, assisting women at risk, and equipping believers to walk in the gifts of the Holy Spirit.

S + Y
S and Y and their two daughters are from Afghanistan. They came from Turkey to the island of Lesvos, Greece where they came to faith in Jesus. When they moved to Athens they worked on a discipleship team doing a church plant among the transient refugee population. S and Y now have Canadian residence but feel called to work among Afghan refugees in Greece.
D + A
D&A’s vision is to see people from all walks of life and nationalities proclaim the name of the Lord and experience him personally. They love opening their home in hospitality by inviting people in to experience love and connection in tangible ways. They will focus on learning Greek for the first few years of living in Greece which they believe is essential to connect at a heart level with the Greek people. They have a heart to reach college students in the Athens region.
Luke 6:40
A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone when he is fully trained will be like his teacher.
