Team and Country Info

We have been the country team leaders since 1992, and have seen much growth and many lives changed. We are part of a quality team that has come together over these last years, and we see how God has directed it all. Craig and Fabiana Jost and Carola Unger have been serving with us since late 2000. We also give supervision to a growing church planting project among recent immigrants from Africa under the leadership of Mente Ntiama Marques and his wife Teresa.
