Chris and Brook are the Directors for the Chi Alpha ministry on the campus of St. Cloud State University in St. Cloud, Minnesota.
Chris’ first trip was to Mexico as a youth group leader with River Valley Church—there he came to admire the missionaries and how each of them had given up their lives for God’s choice of where they would go and what they would do.
When Chris returned from Mexico, he was asked by Pastor Rob to pray about a people group, place or special ministry, and that God would reveal His will. It was then that God began to put a dream in Chris and Brook’s hearts to minister to college-aged students, and in 2010, they were called to St. Cloud State University.

The population of Germany is currently 84 Million plus and has grown significantly through the influx of refugees from the Middle-East, Africa and most recently from Ukraine. We live in a small town surrounded by over 300.000 residents, yet there is not a Pentecostal church within a 50 kilometer radius. We desire to see this changed.
The Portuguese speaking nations of Africa are home to some of the largest and fastest growing churches in Africa. The growth has greatly out-paced Biblically trained leadership needed to conserve help establish new believers in the faith and preserve established believers in that faith. The Assemblies of God in Angola with its 2.5 million members, is the second largest AG church in Africa, followed closely by Mozambique with nearly 2 million. The Bible college we began in Angola in 2012, since December, 2023, under complete Angolan leadership and we continue serving in a mentoring/consultant ministry. We have been asked to help in the same manner in Mozambique and will spend a part of February in that country.
