CONFERENCE SPEAKERS

AGWM Executive Director Dr. John L. Easter's vision is to see AGWM's 2,700 global workers serving in 155 countries joined by the next generation of laborers, and new fields opened for missionary service. His heart is that the sons and daughters of our local churches may discern and respond to God's call to cross-cultural missions and plant the church among the unreached.

As a pastor, missionary, and educator, Dr. Easter is passionate about mobilizing the next generation for frontier missions. Serving in Africa for 22 years, he trained church planters and missionaries to carry the Gospel across the continent. His cross-generational focus extends intimately to his family. John and Cheryl are deeply devoted to their children: Kevin; John-John, and his wife, Calissa; and Mitchell, his wife, Alyssa, and their four children.

As AGWM's executive director, Dr. Easter believes fervent intercession and consistent discipleship are the keys to raising a new generation of laborers. The local church must take up its calling to nurture, disciple, and send out its sons and daughters to proclaim the Good News.
