The Housholders are the innovative and energetic leaders for the Indian Springs 'Tweens Ministry. Their married partnership has encompassed a broad range of unique ministry experiences, both nationally and internationally.

In the mid 1960's, the Housholders headed off to India with Operation Mobilization (OM) for what was to be a short two-year term. Those two years stretched into 27 years in India, Nepal and Thailand with both OM and Interserve USA. Dave is IT Director for Interserve USA, advising on computer and software purchases. Linda designs promotional and instructional materials for various ministry events.

The Housholders are members of the First Asian Indian Baptist Church of Metro Atlanta and help with various ministries there. Throughout the year, they present workshops to churches learning how to minister to ethnic peoples in the USA. These workshops are called "Going Among the Nations Without a Passport." Every summer since 1997, the Housholders have directed The RAD Project (Rising Adolescent Disciples) which keeps the 'Tweens of Indian Springs in touch with each other during the year. The 'Tweens Ministry serves children from the 6th-8th grades.

What does this couple do for their own fun? The Housholders go bird watching and have taken up Square Dancing, which they consider to be ALMOST as much fun as being grandparents to their four grandchildren! The Housholders live in Marietta, GA.
