Seeds in Life Have Brought Us Here
Werner and Joanne De Jong in Ethiopia

“I think a seed was planted in me from a very young age.”
- Werner De Jong

"I think I am a Christian today because of their faith and joy and the way they embraced me"
- Joanne De Jong

Why would a couple leave their jobs, family and congregation, be stalled from travelling to Ethiopia because of civil war, and endure tedious and frustrating visa and work permit delays while in a pandemic? They recall the many seeds of faith that have led them to this place.

Read more of how they have followed God's leading.
