About My Family
From Kerry:
Art is a natural expression of my life and faith. I serve as an evangelism catalyst in Marietta, Ga. I use my talent in art as a tool to fulfill the Great Commission among the creative community of metro Atlanta. From 2006–2016, I was involved in church planting, starting churches in Atlanta and Indianapolis. From 1994–2006 I was on staff at the North American Mission Board as their exhibit designer. My wife, Twyla, and I were high-school sweethearts and have been married since 1980.
From Twyla:
I have known my husband for as long as I can remember. We grew up in the same church and attended the same schools. I accepted Christ at age 9. I was a GA and an Acteen. We have served as Mission Service Corps missionaries since October 2006. We have two daughters, two sons-in-law, and eight grandchildren.

About My Ministry
From Kerry:
Using the missionary principles I learned during 10 years of church planting among cultural creatives, I now use creative methods to engage the unreached people group of “artists” in the metro Atlanta area. My goal is to share the gospel with those I encounter in the art community and to make disciples.
From Twyla:
I serve alongside my husband in reaching cultural creatives for Christ. A cultural creative is someone involved in the creative arts as a professional, as a hobbyist or as a patron. I enjoy music, theater, sewing and cooking. I build relationships through volunteering and networking at various arts venues. We were involved in church planting for 10 years before becoming evangelism catalysts.
