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.

We’ve noticed them noticing us. The bearded men cluster in groups of three or four along the road in the shopping area. As we walk by, their heads turn as they watch us. When our eyes meet, their gaze bores into us. They seem to suspect why we are here.

The man desperately wanted to get a visa to visit his son who immigrated to the States several years ago. He hoped that Sean, as an American, could help him.
