Hi, we are the Ernst Family: Caleb, Kate, Henry (2017), & Oliver (2020).
God gave us a desire to see others come to know, love, and serve Him with all their hearts. We met one another on the leadership team of our church's young adult group right before Caleb headed to Indonesia for 3 months as a short-term missionary. Not long after he got back, we began dating, married, and eventually started our own family. Our passion for discipleship, love for young adults, and call to mission work has led us to serve in Spain.
Despite being a country filled with beautiful cathedrals, less than 2% of Spaniards know and follow Jesus. Youth also face high unemployment rates and lack a hope for their future. Our mission is to plant and develop churches in unreached areas through building meaningful, life-transforming relationships and discipling believers in the local church. We long to see the next generation of Spanish believers on fire for God, teaching them to live out their faith with integrity and empowering them to share the hope of the gospel with those around them.
