OUR MISSIONARIES

Tim & Paula Tjernagel, MaKayla, Nathaniel and Hannah
Tim and Paula Tjernagel have now been a part of World Team for the last 10 years. They were both raised in Christian homes. Tim grew up in Iowa, while Paula spent her childhood in South America where her parents served with Wycliffe Bible Translators. Both Tim and Paula committed their lives to Christ at a young age. They met each other while Tim was at seminary at Columbia International University and Paula was studying for her elementary education degree at the same university. They were married a couple years later in 1992.
After Tim and Paula served as youth pastor and elementary school teacher respectively for 5 years, they joined World Team to follow the dream that God had placed on their heart—to go to a place where people have little chance of hearing the gospel. In 1998 they went to Costa Rica to do their language learning. In 1999 they moved to the city of Cáceres to join a small team of missionaries working in one of the least evangelized parts of Spain.

Tim and Paula continue to serve in Cáceres with the goal of helping to start a church planting movement. Currently, they are finishing a church plant with the goal of seeing the church initiate another church plant in a city where there is no evangelical presence.

The Tjernagels have three children, MaKayla, Nathaniel and Hannah. They would be the first to tell you that their little ones play a vital role in bringing the good news to Spaniards. They feel their biggest witness is simply being a Christian family and letting Christ flow through them in all of their living.

An Update from Our Missionaries...
Greetings from Spain!
 
Our summer in Spain began by receiving six college-aged interns and so we´re writing to ask you to be praying for them and us as we guide them through this summer experience.  As these six young people arrived, they were setting the foundations for the summer by doing a week long study on the Gospel.  They are a great group and we´re really excited about what God is going to do through them and in them. 
 

Here are some specific prayer items…
1)       Kami Trevillian has been serving with us for about eight months now as an apprentice.  She has been our right hand all year long but this summer she will be coordinating a lot of the interns activities.  Please pray that God will fill her with wisdom to connect with and help each of our interns to grow in Christ.

2)       Pray that our interns would not get homesick, that they´d adjust and learn much about the Spanish culture, that they´d have many opportunities to serve and share Christ with others, and that God would teach them more about Himself and His kingdom.

3)       Pray for Paula and I that we´d depend on God more and walk in the Spirit as we have a lot of people coming and going this summer (besides the interns).  We want to use each opportunity to see God be glorified and His kingdom advance in Spain and in our hearts.

4)       Pray for a team of 15 people from Gibbsville Reformed Church in Wisconsin who will be coming to do an evangelistic Basketball and English camp at the end of June.  This year there are many basketball camps being offered in our city and even at the same time as our camp.  Pray that God would bring many children and youth to our camps who will be ready to receive the love of God found in Christ. 
 
Thanks again for your prayers and support!  You guys are our heroes!! 

~ Tim for all the Tjernagels
