We have been blessed to serve with InnerCHANGE since 2005 when we moved to San Francisco to join The Outer Circle team that reached out to homeless and traveling youth in the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood. 

We have been with the Los Angeles InnerCHANGE team since 2011 in the Westlake/ MacArthur Park neighborhood. The team's focus is to work alongside neighbors and churches to "holistically develop people as leaders and reproducing disciples of Jesus". Paul does this primarily through a youth ministry called the "ICLA Music Collective." Mariah contributes by leading spiritual retreats for Spanish speaking women from our neighborhood. 

We also have leadership roles within InnerCHANGE: 

As the Director of Services for InnerCHANGE, Mariah coordinates and oversees all our "service teams" such as Member Care, Mobilization, Communications, Justice, Staff Formation, and Operations. Each of these plays a key role in strengthening the trellis that allows IC missionaries to thrive in their ministry contexts.

As the US Regional Director, Paul is overseeing the teams of Los Angeles, Modesto, Minneapolis, Grand Rapids, and New York City. In each of these cities our teams are living and ministering communities facing poverty, proclaiming the Gospel in both word and deed.

We both graduated from Wheaton College in 2004; Paul with a B.A. in Biblical and Theological Studies and Mariah with B.A.'s in both Biblical and Theological Studies and Christian Formation and Ministry. Paul also has a M.A. in Global Leadership from Fuller Seminary.
