The need to equip and release workers into the harvest fields of the world is immense—especially those called to cross-cultural contexts and the 9,000+ unreached people groups globally.
In August 2024, we joined the multicultural faculty and staff at Cornerstone Bible College in the Netherlands to help train and prepare workers for international ministry. Cornerstone offers 1- and 2-year intercultural studies programs designed to equip young professionals for long-term missions. We live in community with staff and students, where they receive training in cross-cultural ministry, Bible, and theology, while gaining hands-on experience and learning from seasoned global workers.
I (Mark) teach theology and Bible at Cornerstone and also serve as the Assistant Regional Director for the Eurasia region. In this role, I partner with Bible colleges and seminaries across the region—offering teacher training and connecting pastors and educators with various training initiatives.
I (Kim) provide member care both at Cornerstone and throughout the Eurasia region, supporting over 50 global workers and their families. This includes life coaching, short-term counselling, and debriefing sessions. I also help orient workers to their ministry contexts and walk with them through all stages of their journey, offering holistic care and encouragement.
I (Mark) began teaching in Bible schools across Eastern Europe in 1998, later founding a Bible school in Armenia. After we married in 2002, Kim and I served together in Armenia and then led a Bible school in Spain from 2014–2024.
We now live in the Netherlands with our three children: Alyssa (nursing student), Madeleine (Bible college student), and Caleb (in high school). I hold degrees in theology and biblical studies and am currently pursuing doctoral studies. Kim is a certified life coach and is working toward her M.A. in Care and Counselling.
