The Taylors |
|
Dan and Danita Taylor were married in 1997 and have three children Anna (2001),
Abigail (2004) and Gabriella (2006). Since that time they have engaged in
teaching, preaching, compassion outreaches, pastoring and short-term ministry trips
abroad to Mexico, South America and West Africa. The family now serves as missionaries
with the Assemblies of God and is presently residing in Portugal for final preparation
prior to their arrival in the central African nation of Angola.

Danita grew up as a missionary kid with her family in the Canary Islands, Spain. Until
she returned to the United States as a teenager for college, Danita was involved in
church life with people from Spain, Sweden, England, Germany and other parts of Europe.
The exposure to multiple cultures and the many opportunities she had to work with those
who were hurting and lost made a significant personal impact. It was during these times
that God made clear to her a calling to foreign missions.

Dan accepted the Lord at a young age and grew up in the Midwest and Northwest. He loved
playing soccer and basketball and when he entered college it was with the intention of pursuing
a career in coaching and teaching. Shortly before finishing his education degree, he sensed
the Lord redirecting him and calling him to foreign missions service. Since that time he has
immersed himself in Christian ministry and missions - preaching, counseling, training, teaching,
missionary biographies, missions committees, conventions, trips, language study and more.

Today, Dan and Danita and their girls know that God is leading them to Angola. The years of
teaching and pastoring have uniquely prepared them to undertake the task of training pastors there.
The Taylors are grateful to be a part of bringing to these precious Christian brothers and sisters
the Word of God.
