About Me
Mike was Calvary’s high school pastor for almost 10 years (95-2004). Now as a member of Calvary, Mike serves with the Russian Child Sponsorship Program and Eastern European regional ministry. Joining Christian Associates (CA) in the fall of 2004, Mike initially began coaching and developing the ministry partnership between Calvary, CA and 3 churches in Russia and Latvia (Grace Baptist Russia, Golgotha Russia and Riga Reformed in Latvia).
CA is an international organization focused on extending God’s kingdom by multiplying effective leaders who can help launch new churches, seeking to see Jesus Christ changing lives in the cities of Europe and beyond. CA now has projects in 32 cities in Europe and 10 cities in the Americas. CA and Calvary have a long-standing partnership focused in Russia, Latvia and are looking to expand into other Eastern European countries in the future.
Though he travels extensively, Mike’s role has his office and home in the US. Initially Mike served primarily in Russia and Latvia but in 2006 he moved into a split role that focuses on 1) Eastern European Director (Primary Role) and 2) overseeing CA’s Southern California initiatives and churches.
