Kayla Eggering
Student Mobilization (StuMo) at Missouri State University
After beginning a relationship with Jesus her sophomore year of college, Kayla plugged into StuMo as a college student- through StuMo, Kayla gained tools and skills to connect with God personally and to share her faith with her peers. Upon graduation, Kayla was offered a full-time position with the ministry. After fundraising for a year, Kayla began working full-time with college students at Missouri State in 2020 and is entering her third year on campus.
StuMo's mission statement is to build laborers for Christ from the college campuses of the world. StuMo exists on approximately 30 campuses throughout the Midwest, Western, and Southern United States and is expanding! StuMo's strategy is to invest in the heart of the campus: where students are most relationally connected and have the biggest influence. StuMo staff engage these students with the gospel through outreach and evangelism efforts, establish new believers in the foundations of the faith, equip them with tools to go public with their faith, and export them onto the next phase as spiritual leaders.

Resurrection Church
Pastor Rod and Martin are co-pastors at Resurrection Church in Bowling Green, MO. Pastor Martin and his wife Jean are endorsed by Send Network church planters and helped kick off Resurrection Church on Easter Sunday of 2018. They held their service at Pike-Lincoln in Eolia up until July of 2022, when they were able to move into a church building.
Resurrection Church is flourishing! They have their Sunday service at 10am and a Woman’s Bible Study on Wednesday at 6pm. They recently sponsored 5 of their church members on a 10-day mission trip to SE Asia, support the Common Cup coffee shop mission in Noel, MO, and are active in many other ministries. Resurrection continues to see lots of opportunities to share the gospel with non-believers in their nation and to lift the spirits of some of the long-term missionaries in the country.
David Peterka
When the saints
David, Easy, and Taji spend most of each year in Malawi, SA Africa and absolutely love it. David is from St. Louis and Essy is a Kenyan, but they met in Malawi in 2015 and got married in 2017. David founded an organization called When the Saints in 2011, which they currently still help to direct.
When the Saints, built the first and only long-term trauma counseling safe home in Malawi for girls who have been sexually abused. Hundreds of girls have come into the year-long program. They desire to see a sustainable reduction in the cases of abuse and have a program to help men walk in sexual integrity.
Camp Hope - ROMANIA
In the fall of 2022 and 2023, Redemption Road partnered with International Access to Missions and helped build Camp Hope, a camp designed to house Ukrainian women and children refugees, as well as youth camps in the summer. The team also delivered care packages to Ukrainian refugee shelters, as well as shared testimonies and encouragements to local churches in Romania.
Redemption Road is planning to take a team in the Spring and Fall of 2024. If you are interested in serving, you can fill out the Missions Interest Form.
mission trip interest
In Acts 1, we believe that Jesus called us to share the Gospel with Jerusalem (our loved ones), Judea (our own community), Samaria (our neighboring communities), and to all the ends of the earth (globally). At Redemption Road, we are involved in several global mission trips a year. In 2024, we plan to take a trip to Malawi in February to serve When The Saints, and two trips to Romania to serve Camp Hope.
