Stephen and Jessica Morse come from a long heritage of missions on both sides of their family. As family doctors, they have a passion for other cultures and using their skills to train and disciple others in Christ while meeting practical medical needs. They will be working with an international team of doctors at Shell Hospital in Ecuador. The hospital has a long standing presence of ministry in the community, and sits in a unique location for medical and spiritual outreach into nearby indigenous communities (sometimes by boat!). The Morses are already fluent in Spanish, and have previously spent time in this region. Their heart is to see Christ exalted through medical training, Bible studies, and hands-on patient care.

In addition to doctoring, the Morses are working at their other full time job- raising three fun and wonderful boys! Stephen enjoys learning about small business ventures, playing piano, and doing projects to help others. Jessica loves being in the garden, teaching in the classroom, and discussing science and theology with the boys. The boys enjoy building forts outside, climbing trees, and making all sorts of building creations. The whole family loves travel! 

Their heart is...
