Jon and Vicky
Jon studied Global Studies and Policy and Management at Carnegie Mellon University. He
briefly worked in marketing before entering full time ministry among Muslims in Pittsburgh. He worked with
a local team in the city among refugees, doing a variety of community development work
including helping the community to start an urban farm and doing grant writing to help the
community non-profit hire a caseworker.
Vicky is a nurse, specializing in community nursing and palliative care.
She is also involved in women's and youth ministries in our area of the city.
We met at language school studying French, both preparing to head other places. But God had
other plans! In preparation for getting married, we went back to Vicky’s home country, where
Jon is doing a Master’s in Management and Entrepreneurship with an aim to use business for
the kingdom. We plan to take a vision trip when possible, to explore where God will have us
serve overseas.
