About My Family
Abigail was born in Tennessee but grew up in Africa as a missionary kid (MK). I was born and raised in Afghanistan. After fleeing from the Taliban, I met believers in my new country of residence and eventually followed Christ, was discipled and then began serving among refugees there.
That is where Abigail and I met as both were in Central Asia serving refugees together. We were married there and continued to serve together overseas until June 2021 when they, and our young son, transitioned to the United States. We became legal guardians of three of my siblings when American troops evacuated Afghanistan, instantly making them a family of six.

About My Ministry
We will be using our language and cultural knowledge, as well as our years of experience serving overseas, to serve the refugees in the Memphis area. We will be walking with refugees as they transition into life in the United States. We will be building friendships, evangelizing and discipling as we live life with them.
We also hope to come alongside and empower the American church to reach out to their refugee neighbors.
