Career Missionaries since 2006, serving the Shqiptaret Muslims of Albania.
Sean and Brenda met at a U.S. Air Force base in Germany and were married two years later. They became Seventh-day Adventist Christians six years after that. Missions was on their hearts from the start. Evenings with their two daughters were often spent reading mission stories aloud.
Sean and Brenda and their daughters Megan and Moriah were called to Albania individually and together through a series of providential events. They all prayed for the people of Albania for over two years before they moved there with AFM to serve the people God had placed on their hearts.
Sean and Brenda have enjoyed serving the Albanian people since early 2006 and have been blessed to be part of a growing fellowship of Adventist believers in an area where there were none before. Additionally, they serve as AFM field directors for the Balkans, the Middle East and Eastern Europe.

The spiritual darkness here is agonizingly deep—a seemingly endless black hole of despair. When we dwell on it, we are tempted to yield to the hopelessness that is never far from people’s lives. It continually chases them, nipping at their heels like a hungry wolf, tearing at their dreams of something better.

“I am only here to help them,” complained a frustrated aid worker to a young Albanian man. “Why won’t they open up to me?”
The young Albanian thought for a moment, searching for a way to help the aid worker understand. “Do you think a woman who has been brutally raped would be trusting and open?” he asked. “Try to understand what my people have been through.
