John and Anna Fern King:

We live in Kalona,Iowia and attend the Sunnyside Mennonite church where I am serving as senior Pastor.  We have four children and they are all married. We also have twelve grandchildren which we enjoy very much.
 
We enjoy traveling and have made numerous trips to Ghana and been involved with the Crusades and medical clinics first hand.  It is always a challenge to go and see the many spiritual needs as well as physical needs of the people there. And it is also a blessing to see believers growing in the Lord.
 

Ken & Mildred Bontrager

I was born and raised in the Middlebury Indiana area and have lived there all my life except for several years of volunteer service in Louisville, KY  I met my wife, Mildred (Huber) while down there.  We have now been married over 35 years, June 3, 1972.  We have three children, two boys ages 33  and 31.  We also have one daughter 25 years old.  I was a member and attended Griner Mennonite Church the first 13 or 14 years of my life, after which my life took different paths until nine years ago when we joined Griner Mennonite Church again.  For hobbies I enjoy reading and doing research, especially that of historical or genealogical interest.  Mildred and I also enjoy cutting and splitting wood and helping our boys with their tree service work.  Most of our travels have been to visit relatives and friends in Virginia, South Carolina, and Alabama plus several trips to Ghana Africa.  My vision for CFC is that it will continue to prosper, grow, and become a significant entity for the cause of Christ in Ghana and other third world countries.  One of my favorite Bible passages is Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not onto thine own understanding.  In all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct thy paths."  I read a statement once made by a Bible Commentator saying "When God's work is done God's way it does not lock Gods provision.  May this be the prayer of CFC and all it's supporters as we continue to work to further Gods kingdom in these last times.

 

Ray & Rosetta Miller

We live in Northern Indiana and go to Roselawn Mennonite Church.  We have 3 children and 6 grandchildren.  Some things we're involved in at our church right now:  I am an elder, teach a men's  Sunday School class off and on, &  serve on the Sunday eve. program committee.  Rosetta teaches a ladies' Sunday School. class,  is active in the ladies' sewing once a month, & makes the bulletins every week. 

    We enjoy doing some traveling.  Our trip to Africa in 2006 was a highlight for us as we got to see first hand what Ray's and Tim's are involved in there.  We took a trip out west this summer & were gone for a couple of weeks.  I have enjoyed the time I've been on the "Crusades for Christ" board, interacting with the missionaries on the field, & seeing the growth in the outreach over the years.
 

Marlin Gingerich

         We are from Riverside, Iowa, where we are farmers.  We go to Sunnyside Mennonite Church where we are active in Sunday School and other activities.  Marlin is on our Brotherhood Health Aid Plan.  We are parents of four children and have twelve grandchildren whom we very much enjoy.  Their ages range from for to twenty four.  We have also gone to Ghana quite a few times, which we have enjoyed very much.

 

Victor and Sheryl Miller

    We live in northern Indiana with our family. We have 4 children, Austin , Hannah , Starla and Sonya . We attend Griner Mennonite Church in Middlebury, Indiana. I enjoy being on the board and enjoy seeing the physical and spiritual needs of the Africans being met through the Bible school and medical clinics.
    My job here in Indiana is working in a recreational vehicle factory.  I work with a lot of different types of equipment such as saws, welders, etc.
    In my spare time we like to travel and fish. A highlight was to travel to Ghana with my son in Sept. 2006. It really made an impact on our lives and we want to do what we can to help bring the gospel to "all the world."
