Linda felt called to overseas missions most of her life. Coming from a family heritage of international ministry and a home that frequently hosted European workers, God began to foster in her a passion to serve overseas. Degrees in French and Spanish only took the desire further. Languages gave direction to serving in Haiti, Latin America, Europe and Africa.

Eventually Linda’s overseas ministry landed her in Europe, serving with a US based missions agency to launch ministry in Europe. She encountered M4 Europe as she and colleagues searched for a church planting process that was used effectively among European churches.

As she learned more about how God was using M4 in powerful ways in Europe, he gave her the conviction to work directly with this European church planting effort. While she continues collaborative efforts between her former agency and M4, she now serves M4 Europe as Director of Partner Relationships for the US churches, foundations and individuals who support M4 Europe, overseeing partnerships and managing relationships between Europe and the US.

Linda also has responsibility for our prayer ministry, a team that daily lifts up the needs of M4 Europe, its workers and projects, as well as praying for their US partner churches and organizations.

Linda is married, is blessed with enjoying 7 grandchildren from ages 3-19 and passionately believes that we submit the retirement season of life to God for serving him and his purposes.
