God answered Buzz and Clifann's prayer and brought them together through missions. They first meet in October of 2004 and were married in November 2005.
Clifann is from the island of Trinidad in the West Indies and grew up always hearing and loving the word of God. Clifann gave here life to the Lord at the young age of seven. In realizing that here parent's salvation was not enough to save her she knew that it was important to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Buzz did not attend church until the age of fifteen. At the age of eighteen he did everything that church and religion told him to do. For eight years he lived under the falsehood of being saved and called himself a Christian. At the age of twenty-five he was "born again" and filled and sealed with the Spirit of God.
Before Buzz and Clifann ever meet, God was moving mightily in their individual lives. When He brought them together from different parts of the world, different cultures, different up bringing and different colors they new it was of God's mighty hands. They knew God would use them to show that He is the God of all nations, all tongues, all tribes, and all colors.
Buzz and Clifann are truly passionate about their Lord and Savior Jesus Christ . For He has done much in their lives! Together they share their testimonies and their passion for missions at home, in our nation and around the world. Missions is the call and the heart of God!!!
