Gretchen grew up in the village of Blissfield, MI. She came to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ at the age of 21. After studying Education, German and Spanish in college, she taught middle school level Spanish for 3 years. God has blessed them with two beautiful daughters and Gretchen enjoys being a wife, mom, and working full-time in the ministry with Ryan.

At the age of 4 Adrianna said that she wanted to be a disciple of Jesus and asked Him to forgive her of her sins. Adrianna shared her faith with Miranda 3 years later during evening devotions. After several months of asking questions, Miranda placed her faith in Jesus when she was 5 years old.
