We, Jason and Coralee Garro, have three kids, Jenna, Luke, and Sydney. We served in Tanzania from 2012-2024.
Field Coordinator
Jason now serves as a Field Coordinator for about 10 teams based in 5 countries in Africa, Europe & South America. He does weekly and monthly calls with the team leaders, where he provides pastoral care, coaching/mentoring & oversight/admin.
To provide good counsel, coaching & mentoring he does a virtual monthly meeting called a LIFT (Look at Implementation and Follow Through). In these calls he asks Pastoral Care and Coaching/Mentoring questions with the goal to insure the team leaders and teams are healthy spiritually, mentally, physically & emotionally. Then depending on the dynamics with each team leader, I sometimes do weekly, or meetings as needed. He also does field visits to each of the teams each year. Jason represents the mission teams to the US based sponsoring churches. And he also is leads trainings and makes disciples locally in the US. I am supposed to communicate new goals & objectives set by Team Expansion, approve budgets, read reports & monthly newsletters, and most importantly to faithfully pray for each of the teams and their ministries daily.
Prayer
It is our prayer that God would start a church multiplication movement among the unreached people in all the countries where Jason oversees teams. We are praying that God would raise up workers from among the local people to make disciples who make disciples and be a part of starting simple churches that start simple churches among the millions of unreached across these countries.
