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.

I don’t believe in coincidence anymore, but I do have confidence in divine providence. God has arranged some pretty exciting situations and meetings to confirm our calling to Albania and to encourage us along the way.

Devastation surrounded me. My eyes surveyed the damage left by the hurricane, and I shuddered to think of the personal tragedies of those caught in the storm’s path.

Albania is a mysterious land of stark contrasts—hot and cold, dry and wet, new and old. Mercedes sedans and donkey carts share the roads. Isolation from the outside world during communism froze Albania in time.
