John and Melinda Henry

John and Melinda Henry attended VISA team leader training in November 2001. Since that time, they have endeavored to go into the world and make a difference in the lives of others for Christ. They led three VISA Ministries work teams, which enlarged their vision to communicate through the language of love and to appreciate the blessings they have. The Henrys are excited to begin a second career as missionaries. They anticipate using hands-on and demonstration-type teaching/modeling in their ministries, working with national church leadership in Liberia.

Josh and Susy Fajardo

The Fajardos’ vision is to see Spanish leaders, people whom God is calling to begin new ministries, small groups and churches throughout Spain. Currently, they are planting a church in a suburb of Madrid, Rivas-Vaciamadrid. Weekly small group meetings are held. The Fajardos are also involved in the development of a nongovernmental organization (NGO) that will focus on compassion ministries in Rivas-Vaciamadrid and in the inner-city of Madrid. In all they do, they desire to be “messengers of love.”

Richard and Sheila Dickinson

Dick and Sheila Dickinson were appointed as career missionaries to Europe in January 2008. They anticipate full-time ministry in Belgium in early 2009 where they will be involved in leadership development, church planting and children’s ministry training on this relatively new Free Methodist field. Dick’s vision for Belgium involves seeing pastors and teachers raised up to lead a vibrant network of house churches in every city in Belgium. These churches would be multi-cultural and would impact their areas for Christ. The ultimate goal would be for the Belgian FMC to become a sending church – sending missionaries to the nations.
