Presenter: Peggy Spiers, who serves on the Global Support Team
for All Nations International.
After spending a lifetime serving young hearts in the classroom, Peggy Spiers transitioned to actively mobilizing, sending, and supporting missionaries from the local church. From her years of spending time with missionaries around the world, Peggy has had a front-row seat to the unique successes and strains missionary families face on the field. From these observations she helped develop Sender’s U, a training to equip churches and individuals in practical ways to send and care for their missionaries. Additionally, Peggy is a trained debriefer and has facilitated debriefings for missionary couples, singles and families on furlough, in transition, or returning from the field.
