They also helped start a youth center and "Christan" music venue in Waxahachie called The Pump. While working at The Pump, Chad was over the music venue and used that as a way to be a positive influence and minister to the bands that come through.
In the last year and a half, God has been speaking to them to move into full-time ministry. They started working with Network 21 Missions and wanted to help start a ministry for 20-somethings and young adults. As the months went on, we felt that they should step into the role of Directors of a new ministry that N21M has started called Culture Shock. They are excited and cannot wait to see what God is going to do through Culture Shock and the people going on Culture Shock trips. We truly believe that as we all work together with a common focus, we can start a "God-Movement" that will change, and impact the world.
