In early adulthood, Michael served in the Air Force. Shortly after his time of service, he met his wife, Heather. Michael and Heather have always had a heart for missions and they are enthusiastic supporters of such. Both have traveled abroad to share the love of Christ with the world. Foreign missions are not their only passion. Michael and Heather know that the greatest and most effective form of evangelism is family. To that end and in obedience to God they have been blessed with ten children. The Erwin’s are emblematic of our church’s emphasis on family-integrated church life. The family worships, prays, and plays together. One might think that with ten children there wouldn’t be time for much else; yet Michael and Heather are constantly opening their home for Bible studies and Christian fellowship. Michael and Heather are wonderful models of Christian faithfulness, steadfastness, and commitment.
