of Minnesota and Denver Seminary. While in school, Larry realized
God was calling him to the mission field. To gain ministry
experience while in seminary, Larry began doing outreach work with a
local Jewish mission in Denver. Though not Jewish himself and having
had little previous contact with Jewish people, Larry soon realized
Jewish missions was where God was leading him.

evangelism since the early church. Larry served as a missionary,
regional director, and U. S. national director with an

Rockville, Maryland, area.
As U. S. Ministries Director
