Steve and Donna - Global Initiative

December 22, 2024

Donna served as a single missionary working with Muslim women for 16 years in South and Central Asia, starting cafes for Muslim women. Steve worked as an engineer for over 30 years at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory where they study the origins of the universe. Steve loves to speak on Faith and Science! They met and married 15 years ago and served 3 years in Turkey. Steve researches and speaks on the emerging history on the origins of Islam.                                                                                                                                                               Currently, they are International Trainers with Global Initiative: Reaching Muslim Peoples (GI), an Assemblies of God World Missions ministry (reachingmuslimpeoples.com). 

Responding to an ever-increasing demand for training and discipleship in these unprecedented times when more Muslims are coming to faith in Jesus Christ than in the entire 1,400-year history of Islam, Steve and Donna help to equip the global church to understand Islam and reach out with the love of Jesus to Muslims. Through Assemblies of God World Mission’s Global Initiative: Reaching Muslim Peoples (GI) they train leaders through Institutes of Islamic Studies in seminaries and schools around the world, lead an international online forum for ministry leaders, conduct research, speak at conferences and churches. Steve and Donna completed PhD’s in the Intercultural Studies Doctoral program at the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary (AGTS) to further equip them in their roles as International Trainers. They are passionate to see Muslims come to Jesus Christ and experience His great love for them! Steve and Donna authored the book, Intercede: Understanding Islam and Ministering to Muslim People .

From Steve and Donna—

Thank you SO MUCH for praying for us and partnering with us to reach Muslims with the gospel. With all that is happening in the world right now we see the need for Muslims to hear the good news about Jesus Christ and his gift of salvation. 

Please pray: 

·      For holiday gatherings with Muslims to share about the birth of Jesus.

·      For the upcoming travel and training in 2025 to equip churches to reach out to Muslims.

·      For the Spirit’s anointing as we continue to develop new resources through blogs, articles, books, videos and more…
