Megan was born and raised in Florida, United States. She came to know Christ at a young age and her walk with the Lord led her to serve in Uganda. There she met Isaac and they were married in March 2020. Megan likes yard work, strategy games, studying the Bible, and enjoying life with Isaac and their son.
Together, Isaac and Megan felt God burdening them for their community in Buikwe. In November of 2020, they moved into a tent in their village and began talking with community members about the community's greatest needs and potential. From there, God continued to shape the vision and mission of EMU and ways to reach the community for Christ. They pray that the Buikwe region will become a thriving community transformed through the Gospel.
"To see all people of Buikwe District become the people God created them to be."
