As the Glocal Missions Manager, Lauren organizes the day-to-day tasks, communications, and events that support Missions. Before serving in Missions, she was the CrossBridge Children’s Ministry Administrator. Lauren worked in corporate IT for twenty years before God turned her life upside down in the best way possible!

Lauren was born and raised in Durban, South Africa.  She later moved to England where she met her husband, Hans.  Together, they relocated to Chicago in 2010 where they had their two children, Heidi and Zoe, and eventually made their way to San Antonio in 2014. Fun fact about Lauren is she’s driven a British Army tank (FV432 APC)!
