Andy grew up in northern Pennsylvania. Raised in a Christian home, his testimony is one of God's grace. His parents modeled a relationship with Jesus Christ, and at age six Andy made that decision personally. Also at a young age, he attended mission conferences where God began to open his eyes to the global need for God's love. Following high school, Andy attended Asbury College where he earned a BA in Psychology and a minor in Christian Ministries.
Andrea grew up in a Catholic home as the oldest of three girls. Though she dedicated her heart to the Lord in high school, her life changed dramatically when she met Him personally at Asbury College. In 1994, she traveled to Bolivia on her first overseas mission trip, where she discovered a passion for missions and a heart for the poor. Since then, she and Andy have traveled on various short-term trips to China and throughout Latin America. In 1997, she graduated with a BA in Applied Communications/Public Relations and in 2001 with an MA in World Missions and Evangelism from Asbury Seminary. Her heart is to love the lost and awaken the church to the plight of the poor.
Andy and Andrea met at Asbury College and married in 1997. They now live in El Alto (near La Paz), Bolivia with their sons Elias and Luke. They serve as Field Directors.
