We are the Theunissens, born and bred in South African. We have three happy God-fearing children, all with their own careers who live in South Africa. We were both called to be medical missionaries at a camp meeting in South Africa in 2008. We decided to wait until our children finished high school when we applied to AFM.

Frontier Stories
Being Present
I also realized that sometimes when I spend time with God, I am also not present. I worry about the future, and yet God wants me to be present, placing my trust in Him. Praise God for valuable lessons learned.
