Missionary Commitment Form

Steve, Tece, Nathan, Rachel and  Matthew Entsminger  have been AGWM missionaries since 1988 and have served 17 years in Honduras reaching children and youth through King's Castle Ministry. 

They have been involved in many aspects of missions work including church planting, serving on the national Executive Presbytery, serving as the Honduras Field Moderator, serving on the Honduran National Missions Committee. Tece has also been very much involved in King's Castle Ministry as Co-Executive Director and leading the Department of Intercession. She has also been involved in ministry through an English Speaking Women's Bible Study, pastor's wives ministry, Field Fellowship Secretary, to name a few.  

They are currently changing fields from Honduras to Spain. Having developed a national leadership team and the ministry that is self-supported they have felt lead to transfer to Spain where there is much need as well. They will continue working with King's Castle Ministry in Spain and plan to be hosts for Hondurans and other Central American youth as they prepare for the mission fields around the world. You can reach them by email at steve.entsminger@agmd.org or at  229-560-9293.

 

Charles, Tammy and DJ Hasselbring just finished their first term as missionaries serving in the Province of Mpumalanga, planting and building new churches.  They were also involved with children with HIV/AIDs in the villages assisting them to receive treatment and care.  On their next term they will be serving in South Africa and neighboring countries where they will be building church tabernacles for Africa Tabernacle Evangelism.  This will involve training others in the area of construction to empower the local churches and give their members skills that will enable them to find employment.  You can contact them at 334.328.1464 or by email at charles.hasselbring@agmd.org
   
Guy and Jan Mims are Promotional and Project Coordinators for Latin America Child Care. There are 80,000 kids in Latin America. They are spread over 20 countries in 300 LACC schools. There are 21,000 kids that are sponsored from the States by those like you and me. As LACC promotional representatives, part of Guy and Jan’s role is to get out the news of what an effective impact it has upon the children of Latin America and the Caribbean. As Project Coordinator, they organize teams to build the schools through missions trips to various locations.

Guy is based out of Mobile which makes his budget less than if he were to base somewhere in Latin America due to the wide area he covers. Being based here in Alabama allows Guy to serve as World Missions Assistant Director. Therefore he is a blessing to LACC and the Alabama District.

Bless Brother Mims by contacting him to conduct a mission’s service. You can add him to your supported missionary list—Account # LACC Dev. 7363831 (44). His phone number is 251-344-1090 or email them at guymims@aol.com

    Joel and Kristen Temple have just returned from their first term as MIT’s serving in the Central African nation of Cameroon. They first went to Cameroon as Missionary Associates in 2001. During their time of ministry in Cameroon, they have worked with planting new churches, tabernacle construction, evangelism crusades and the Book of Hope ministry.

     Joel and Kristen are currently changing fields from Cameroon to France. They were invited to continue to work in Africa, but after seeking God’s direction for their next term they felt God pulling them towards the spiritually dark nation of France. This calling was confirmed with the Europe Area asking them to consider serving in France. They will be returning to the field as fully appointed missionaries and their desire is to work towards planting new churches and finding creative ways of reaching this very secular minded nation with the Gospel. They feel that God has been preparing them for this challenging ministry through their time in Africa and are excited about this next season of ministry.     They plan to be on furlough until September of 2009. They can be reached at 205-613-2872 or at joel.temple@agmd.org
