MINISTRY FOCUS

Don and Christi serve as Cadence Associate Field Staff in support of Wiesbaden Hospitality Ministries in Wiesbaden, Germany. Having served 21 years as an active-duty military family, they feel privileged to share their lives, their home, and their faith with the military community. Their desire is to show the love of Jesus to, and foster discipleship in, young men and women stationed in Wiesbaden.

FAITH

Having grown up in a tough environment, Don’s childhood taught him a lot about self-reliance and overcoming adversity. Although he was saved as a child, his faith really didn’t begin to grow until he met his wife. Christi came to faith in Jesus as a child and spent her formative years surrounded by wonderful Christian community in the church her father pastored. Over 30 years of marriage and life together, Don and Christi have come to a maturity in faith that has fostered a heart for young service members.

FAMILY

Don and Christi have been married since 1993. After ten years together in the civilian world, they became a military family in 2003 as a result of the events of 9/11. Their daughter, Laurel, lives in Charlotte, North Carolina, where she works as a pediatric speech pathologist. Their son, Austin, and daughter-in-law, Larissa, live and work in Cheyenne, Wyoming.
