Sean & Brenda Mays

Career Missionaries since 2006, serving the Shqiptaret Muslims of Albania.

Sean and Brenda met at a U.S. Air Force base in Germany and were married two years later. They became Seventh-day Adventist Christians six years after that. Missions was on their hearts from the start. Evenings with their two daughters were often spent reading mission stories aloud.

Sean and Brenda and their daughters Megan and Moriah were called to Albania individually and together through a series of providential events. They all prayed for the people of Albania for over two years before they moved there with AFM to serve the people God had placed on their hearts.

Sean and Brenda have enjoyed serving the Albanian people since early 2006 and have been blessed to be part of a growing fellowship of Adventist believers in an area where there were none before. Additionally, they serve as AFM field directors for the Balkans, the Middle East and Eastern Europe.

Into the Mountains

“Oh, the adventures we missionaries get to have!” I thought to myself as I gripped the steering wheel tightly, guiding the truck slowly through the deepening water of the rushing river. “Now, where is that exit point?”

Carry the Light

I can hear the poor call of the hopeless:
“Somebody help us,” they cry.
The clock ticks steadily onward
Only hours till the sunset of time.

Watching the Wind

During a class at Amazing Facts College of Evangelism, Annie, a gifted trainer of Bible workers, spoke about how the Holy Spirit is like the wind. She explained that we must be alert to discover the direction the Spirit wind is working in another person’s life. She explained that we must set our sails so we can move in the right direction—God’s direction.
