Stan grew up as a missionary kid and then as a pastor’s kid. He was born in Vienna, Austria, where his parents were involved in church planting until Stan turned eight years old. At the age of eight, Stan’s family moved to Iowa where his father served in various pastoral ministries. Grace was also born into a Christian family. She was reared in the area of Richmond, Virginia. Her father worked as a computer programmer and was actively involved in a good local church. Stan and Grace met their senior year at Bob Jones University. After two years of dating, they were married in August of 1996. Both were burdened to serve the Lord in full-time ministry, but were still not sure as to where. During their first year of marriage, as Stan was still in graduate school, the Lord clarified his place of calling and directed them to go to Vienna, Austria, to work in church planting.
