Charlie graduated from FSB in 2020. Charlie and Michaela were presented with the opportunity to work alongside church planters Bill and Gloria Bagley in Garden City, Utah. God made it clear to them that this is where they needed to serve, especially since they both have developed a strong burden for the people immersed in the religious culture of Utah.

Growing up a missionary kid, Mark never wanted to be a missionary! However, he desired to serve the Lord in youth ministry. In his senior year of Bible College God miraculously softened his heart, placing a call upon his life to serve Him in faith missions. His wife told him He had been working in her heart regarding missions too. A few weeks later at their church's mission conference the speaker asked who was willing to commit their lives to full time faith missions. They looked at each other, shrugged their shoulders and stood up.

In 2020, after ministering among Native Americans 22 years, God set them on a path that led them to continue serving Him in faith missions in a new and exciting way at TECH.

Tom and Debbie arrived in Argentina with their two children, Kati (2) and Andy (4 mos.) and spent their first eight and a half years in Temperley, a suburb of Buenos Aires. Kristi and Danny were born in 1993 and 1995 respectively. While in Temperley the Gibbons were tasked with re-establishing the Pasco Bible Center. In 1999 an interim National pastor accepted the call to lead the church and has been there since.

Lorraine served for 40 years in Africa, primarily as a Bible teacher among women, focusing on the wives of theological students.

Beginning in 2013, Katie spent a year in Stuttgart, Germany ministering to youth, and then moved to Okinawa, Japan, where she was able to spend six more years doing youth ministry. It has been her joy to be able to share her life and the gospel with military teens—joining them at school lunches, equipping them as they dive into God’s Word over coffee, and leading youth groups.

As of July 1, 2021, Katie joined the Mobilization Team at Cadence Headquarters. She assists in recruiting and focuses on building and implementing an internship program for Cadence. Her heart is to see others equipped as they go out to serve the Lord.
