A Little about Us...
TIMOTHY grew up in a loving Christian home where missions were and still are a huge part of everyday life. His parents were missionaries in Senegal and Guinea, West Africa. They came home to Canada and pastored a Church in Wasaga Beach, ON. Even at a young age, Tim felt the strong desire to be used by God to share the gospel. Tim went on to study at Emmanuel Bible College, and it was there that he met his wife, Lyndsay. They married in 2012. In 2017, He and his wife welcomed their son Zach and then their daughter Joella in 2020. Tim has been serving in the Church in informal capacities for years, with a keen desire to share the gospel with those around him.
LYNDSAY grew up in a Christian home in Owen Sound, Ontario, spending most of her childhood at a Pentecostal church. Christ brought her to Emmanuel Bible College, where she met her future husband, Tim. After marrying, she continued her education in Social Work. Lyndsay has served in women’s ministry leadership roles. More recently, she has developed a passion for outreach ministry, specifically in discipling new Christian women, and making lasting and meaningful connections with others through hosting people in her home.
THE ITALY TIMELINE
MAY 2016
April 2022-June 2022
June 2024
Tim & Lyndsay visited Italy on a three-week road trip from Rome to the Amalfi Coast, through Milan and Venice. In retrospect, we know God used this trip to cement a love of the culture and people, and to give us a familiarity with various parts of the country.
For three months, we lived in Camisano-Vicentino with our two small children. During this trip, we made connections with the local Italian church and formed friendships with shopkeepers in our neighbourhood.
During this trip, they were introduced to another couple from Texas who host English conversations in their home as an outreach to the community. We met the Pastor of their church and spent time in fellowship with many fellow brothers and sisters in Christ, all of whom were welcoming and desirous of more Workers to support their ministries.
