Indian Springs welcomes two dynamic missionary families to be our 2023 missionaries. The Coppedges and the Searls serve World Gospel Mission (WGM):
Billy & Joanna Coppedge (and their children) are developing a partnership between World Gospel Mission (WGM) and Whole World Institute, an organization based in Jerusalem that trains Bible translators. Because of their training and experience in orality, the Coppedges have been specifically asked to help train Bible translators that are working in high oral-reliant communities. The Coppedge family is excited about this new opportunity to follow Jesus. They plan to be based in Jerusalem, beginning in August, for at least a yar as they learn their new role.
Dan & Katy Beth Searls serve as Missionary Mobilizers with World Gospel Mission. They have the privledge of shepherding those who have heard the call of God through the process of becoming a missionary and onto the field. From the first steps to the final goal, Dan and Katy Beth encourage, disciple, train and mentor new missionaries. They have great joy in teaching others to be “fishers of men.”
