Scott & Emily Armstrong

Scott and Emily Armstrong are global missionaries and ordained elders in the Church of the Nazarene. They have been ministering in the Mesoamerica Region since January 2004 and have lived in the countries of Guatemala, Costa Rica and Panama. Their son, Elijah, was born in May 2003 and was 7 months old upon their arrival to the mission field, and their daughter, Sydney, was born in Guatemala in February 2005.

Currently living in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, Scott and Emily are coordinating the ministries of Mesoamerica Global Mission and Mesoamerica Genesis, as well as overseeing the construction of the new Center of Missionary Formation, which is being built on the campus of the Dominican Nazarene Seminary. They especially enjoy ministering with children, youth and young adults as they discern God’s call to mission in their lives.

  • Global Mission seeks to discover, develop and deploy missionaries from the countries of Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean.

  • Genesis is a regional initiative to make Christ-like disciples in the urban centers of Mesoamerica. Teams of volunteer missionaries are sent to strategic sites in order to develop and organize new urban churches and existing urban congregations are trained to more effectively reach their communities.

Scott and Emily also host a bilingual podcast to help educate on urban realities and missional topics. Find The Worthless Servants Podcast (or Los Siervos Inútiles Podcast) on iTunes, episodes are released every other Thursday.

Bruce & Cinda McKellips

In 1994, the McKellips family was deployed to Ecuador, South America, as Career (Global) Missionaries with the Church of the Nazarene.  Over the next 13 years, Bruce worked with nationals and Work & Witness volunteers to build 40 churches he had designed.  Cinda was Ecuador Mission Treasurer, and served as hostess for innumerable construction, medical, and evangelism teams.  

After a ministry assignment in the United States, they now live in Lisbon, Portugal, where Bruce is the Field Strategy Coordinator for the Western Mediterranean Field (Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, and Greece), and Cinda is the West Med Field treasurer.  For the Eurasia Region, Bruce coordinates Alabaster and W&W.  Bruce is also currently serving as interim District Superintendent of Spain. For JESUS Film/Harvest Partners, Cinda manages the statistics from Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and India.
