Michael Parks

Michael and his wife, Sheri, serve in crisis regions with unreached/unengaged communities that have little or no assistance and that suffer from oppression, persecution, war or natural disasters. Through holistic transformation --- building relationships, earning trust, attempting to deeply understand, and assisting with recovery toward independence from outside help --- the Parks seek to restore dignity and respect to people who are suffering.


Since helping repatriate refugees from the Kosovo conflict in 1999, Michael and Sheri have overseen disaster response and development operations for more than 20 years in places such as Afghanistan, Sudan-Darfur, Lebanon and Northern Iraq to bring physical, mental and spiritual healing and health. Prior to this work, Michael was a pastor for Calvary Chapel in Wichita, KS, and an engineer for Boeing.


Michael and Sheri have five beautiful children: Carlos, Ilana, Josiah, Micah, and Elijah.
