Justin & Savannah Willis

Justin and Savannah met while living in Bogotá, Colombia, where Justin was teaching English and Savannah was working in youth ministry at an international church. They married in 2021 and moved to St. Louis, Missouri to pursue further training for ministry from Covenant Theological Seminary.

While in St. Louis, the Willses are serving with NEXT in its ministry to missionary families. Having lived and worked abroad in a ministry setting, Justin and Savannah have experienced both the joys and challenges that come with doing ministry cross-culturally. Through this experience, they have developed a heart for missionary families to be supported and sustained as they serve the Lord throughout the world, and especially for missionary kids to be cared for as they grow up as third culture kids. Alongside the rest of the NEXT team serving in Latin America, Europe, and Asia, the Willises get to be a part of helping young people know that they are known and loved by the Lord. They particularly serve college students who grew up as missionary kids and missionary families that serve in Africa and with Global Muslim Ministries.
