For over forty years, we have helped people from a variety of ages and backgrounds learn to follow Jesus as disciples and equipped them to make other disciples of Jesus as well.

We live in the small town of Thornton, NH, located in the beautiful White Mountain National Forest. We have 4 adult children and 2 grandchildren.
