Kip and Tammy Elliott serve in Rome, Italy, where they help build spiritual movements. For the past seven years, they have focused on reaching major cities like Rome, because they believe that the culture of a continent -- including its commerce, law, media, medicine and arts -- is shaped in its city-centers. Their goal is to help churches engage each of these sectors of society in order to see city-centers, and eventually, continents, transformed with the Gospel.

For the Elliotts, Western Europe is an ideal place to train leaders, and evaluate the future of the Church in the Western world. They believe if they can help Western European churches meaningfully re-engage with their secularized communities, they can also help the churches in the United States learn how to move forward as American society becomes increasingly secularized. 

Over the past 15 years, Kip and Tammy and have been school teachers and youth pastors, as well as missionaries serving with Campus Crusade for Christ at the University of Oklahoma, in East Asia, in the Middle-East, in Europe, and at Crusade's World Headquarters.

Kip has a master's degree from Dallas Theological Seminary. The Elliotts have four kids, and are currently in the process of adopting two children from Ethiopia.
