Paula has had a heart to return to Tanzania as a missionary again, ever since she left in 2002. Since then,
many wonderful things have occurred in her life like meeting her husband, Rick, and having their three
beautiful children. Together through the years, they have served as mission pastors, led mission trips,
and found a heartbeat in encouraging missionaries and supporting current missions. In 2014, she and
Rick found themselves with an open door and willingness to plant a local church, Love & Truth Church.
In 2020, after six faithful and foundational years, they raised up another to assume the pastoral role.
While today, Paula still serves on the leadership team at Love&Truth, she also continues to travel in
teaching and ministering. As a published author as well, she finds immense joy in training, teaching, and
raising up others in ministry. In Tanzania, Paula will be working once again with a former teammate-
missionary, Jill Omari. Under Jill’s leadership, she will be working in Kilimanjaro, Tanzania as well as in
the States. She’ll travel to Tanzania 1-2 times a year to help build and instruct in an equipping internship
program. While in the States, she will be traveling to colleges and Bible schools presenting their students
with the opportunity to participate in the internship program.
