Kenton and Emily owe everything to the hope and love of Jesus. It is their deepest desire to help others experience the blessings that come from a relationship with Jesus Christ. They hope to spend their lives being representations of Jesus' love to those who do not know Him especially in the unreached parts of the world.

Kenton grew up in SEND as an MK (missionary kid) in Japan. Emily, a PK (pastor's kid), grew up in Southern California. They met in 2013 at Moody Bible Institute in Spokane, Washington, where they both received Bible degrees. In 2015, they were married in the little church that Emily attended all her life. They spent the first year of their marriage in Washington and then moved to Southern California. Emily is a caregiver, and Kenton works as a group leader at a program for adults with special needs. They are both currently actively involved in several ministries including leading a young adults Bible study and teaching Sunday school. They also strongly believe in discipleship and are disciplining several people.

Kenton and Emily will be going on a vision trip to Macedonia and Spain. They would love to serve as long-term missionaries and are hoping this trip will provide clarity regarding God's plan for their future and where He can use them best.
