Chad and Keyesy Logan
Band director & music teacher
Western Europe

God has been so faithful in our pursuit of Him. Chad and I both shared a call to missions before we were married in 1995--mine through my experiences as an MK in Portugal and Chad through missionary speakers at his church in Bruce, Miss.

“In the trenches”

We worked several jobs until the Lord planted us in Lee County in north Mississippi. God has guided us toward His purpose while we have lived there the past four years. I got a job at a local high school teaching music, and Chad had a part-time ministerial position at our church.

The day before school started, the principal of my school shared that they were in need of another band director. He asked if I knew of anyone who could fill in. Is God awesome or what? Chad's degree from Mississippi College is in music, as is mine. He was hired over the phone that day!

These past two years have shown us a side of youth work that we never experienced in the church. We were in the trenches. Day in and day out we were confronted with the lostness of the next generation. They were searching for the truth--looking everywhere but to the Gospel.

Students seeking

Under the magnifying glass of their young, tender eyes, our lives became open books. Our home became their refuge. One student even came knocking on the door one afternoon for the sole purpose of seeking the Lord. He prayed with Chad that afternoon to accept Christ.

God told us it was time through a trip last summer to Portugal and Spain. We worked with the youth-aged missionary kids (MKs) of the Iberian Cluster and knew we were finding the niche God had for us. From there we were led to the position of MK consultant for Western Europe.
