During the winter of 1996, God called a high school student named David Blessing to the critical task of taking the Gospel around the world.

During the winter of 1998, God called a godly, young woman named Billie Stouter to the same assignment of crossing cultural boundaries to take the Gospel to those who have not yet heard.

In May 2003, God called these two servants to be united to each other in marriage and to share the mission of making God famous among the least evangelized peoples of the world.

Through years of preparation at college and seminary as well as ministry experience in various churches and missions endeavors, God has equipped this young couple for his service.

In January 2005, the next piece fell into place as God called David and Billie to join their efforts with those of pioneers, a vibrant missions agency committed to that same task.

During the spring of 2005, David and Billie’s home church, Monclova Road Baptist, near Toledo, Ohio, committed to send them to reach the lost in West Africa.

David and Billie spent the next several months traveling the country and sharing their vision for ministry in Africa.  They met their support goal and left for the mission field in the spring of 2006.  Since that time, they have begun adjusting to life and ministry in West Africa.

David and Billie are prepared to do whatever it takes to fulfill God’s call upon their life and share God’s love with those who desperately need to hear it.
