Eric Stinnett and his family — clockwise, from top: wife Johanna and children Luke, Naomi and Rachael — are going from rural Montana to bustling Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. “There is a place and a role for every single LCMS member in America in foreign missions,” Stinnett says, whether they choose to serve or support those who do.
