My wife, Melody and I have been married for 39 years and were born and raised in the state of Ohio in the U.S.A., but have lived in many different areas of America as well as other countries.


Not too long ago we returned to the United States after spending 6 years in Kenya, East Africa as Missionaries for the churches of Christ. We are currently living in Piqua, Ohio, and up until recently working full time with a mission congregation in Greenville, Ohio. Early last year we traveled back to Africa to teach seminars and follow up on the Correspondence School (WCLO) which we began and now oversee. I have been a minister for the churches of Christ for 36 years, spending nearly 22 of those years in mission work. During that time I graduated from Sunset School of Preaching and have been able to obtain my B. A. in Bible, my M.D. in  Bible and my Ph.D. in Ministry & Religious Education.

Where We Are:
We are presently devoting more of our time to our mission work which is World Christian Literature Outreach (WCLO). This is a ministry that provides printed study materials to students all over the world. It is designed specifically for people that use English as a second language or have only a basic use of English.

About 5 years ago we entered a new phase of life, when we became grandparents. Our Son and Daughter-in-law (Kirk and Mylinda) presented us with our first grandson, Leslie (after his grandfather) Christopher Lawson. To say we are the typical proud grandparents would be putting it mildly. Our youngest son Seth is unmarried at this time and working as a die cutting press operator.
