Gordon and Marilyn Woolard

Field:  French Caribbean

Sending Organization:  Mission to the World

The Woolards have been involved in missions (primarily with international students) since they were in college at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and at Westminster Seminary.  In the 80s Gordon, Marilyn and their four children lived in Brussels, Belgium.  They taught principles of cross-cultural evangelism to European students through the International Fellowship of Evangelical Students.  In Brussels, the Woolards came to love the French language.  They made a commitment to return to a ministry in French if God should open those doors.  God did just that through an MTW partnership with Ministries in Action of Miami, Florida.

The Woolards maintained their devotion to missions by working with internationals at Virginia Tech.  Gordon also pastored Grace Covenant PCA in Blacksburg, VA for ten years.  Those experiences help them in their teaching/discipleship among French-speaking Caribbean islanders both on the islands and in South Florida.  Gordon teaches a range of theological courses through a combination of in person visits and written/telephone follow up.  Gordon and Marilyn also minister through relationships and share what they have learned from Scripture in 30 plus years of marriage.
