we are serving

Reaching & Teaching aims to make mature disciples, establish healthy churches, and train local leaders. Our mission is to advance the gospel worldwide through long-term missionary mobilization, short-term theological training trips, ministry internships, and strategic church partnerships. Since 2009, Reaching & Teaching has worked to meet the enormous need for healthy churches and theological training around the world through long-term sending and short-term training. Our missionaries are committed to seeing biblical churches established that prioritize covenant membership and expositional preaching led by qualified elders.

About Tim

My Role at RTIM is to help sending churches increase their sending capacity and help develop best missions practices for partner churches. Karla and I also provide member care for the missionaries serving with RTIM in Asia.

I grew up on the mission field in a church planting family and have a huge soft spot for missionary kids and their parents. We are long-time members of Hope Bible Church where I had the privilege to serve as the Director of Mission and Compassion ministries. This role allowed me to travel extensively around the globe seeing churches planted and partnerships developed in Eastern Europe, Africa, and the Caribbean.

About Karla

My Role at RTIM is member care for missionary wives, moms, and single women serving in Asia. Together, Tim and I support a regional group of missionaries helping them to thrive and stay healthy on the mission field.

I grew up in various parts of Canada before my family settled in the Greater Toronto area. It has been a joy to be a stay-at-home mom for most of our marriage and raise our children in the Lord. I’ve also served in various roles in our church, most recently in children’s ministry before joining the staff at RTIM.

Together with my husband Tim, we have traveled around the world to support missionaries and church planters in the pursuit of the Great Commission and are deeply burdened to see both missionaries and churches healthy and fruitful in their ministry.

We Are Always Looking For New Partners

Reaching & Teaching requires all missionaries and staff members to raise support to cover their salaries as well as a ministry and travel budget. All donations go to RTIM Canada, which issues a Canadian charitable tax receipt. 

We count it a huge privilege to have a sending team that is committed to pray for us, our missionaries, and partner churches. We firmly believe prayer is the fuel for missions!  Would you consider joining our sending team?
