Raised by church planting parents in southern California, John is a graduate of Talbot Seminary with additional studies at Fuller Seminary and William Carey International University. Since 1993, John has engaged Villagers in multi-cultural outreach overseeing both long term international workers as well as short term international and local humanitarian work.
Under John’s leadership, Village provides humanitarian services to both local and international communities in partnership with non-profit organizations, other churches, and government agencies as the Health and Human Services department of Washington County. Through these partnerships, thousands of families receive Village driven medical and dental care, legal services, food provision, basic supplies, education, and most of all hope.
Prioritizing vulnerable and underserved communities, John’s passion is to see people’s lives transformed by Villagers devoted to loving others with the extravagant love of Jesus.
