Welcome!

Welcome! If you're here it's is most likely because you know us and know what we are up to! If that's not you, then let me tell you a little about us!

We are the Dantzler's...well this is just one of the Dantzler's, Candace in particular. My husband is Laurence and together we have two handsome little boys. Keitt and Jackson.

Laurence and I have been together 10 years, married 6 of those ten! The Lord has blessed us wonderfully. I think I can speak for the both of us when I say we married our best friend, cheesy-yes BUT very true! Laurence works as a chef at a baptist church here in Macon, and I get to stay home with our children.

Okay, let me see if I can make our long "missions" story short.
In May of 2011 I, Candace, went to Nicaragua on a short term mission trip. I came back with a hankering for going into the missions field, particularly there---hello warm weather and beautiful scenery. Laurence obliged. Around June of 2011 I got sick with psoriatic arthritis which would make it impossible to serve in a 3rd world country. In September of 2011, Laurence and I attended a vision retreat with Mission to the World. Through this retreat it became obvious that the Lord was calling us to serve Him globally, Japan in specific, and long-term.

We have not been approved through Mission to the World to become missionaries...we are just at the beginning of the process.

However, we have a team that we would love to join. This is a team of people that will be working in Osaka, Japan starting an international college. We are confident that this is where the Lord is leading us.
Go here to check out the college...Genesis International College to be exact.
*I'll share more about them in future posts.


Well....I think that is good as far as welcomes go. It at least gives us a starting point!
