Steven and Sandra have been in Japan since 1996, working with The Evangelical Alliance Mission (TEAM). TEAM is a mission organisation committed to establishing healthy, reproducing churches so the Japanese can reach their own people.

Steven is one of the seven leaders overseeing the mission. He also assists the 80+ TEAM Japan missionaries with administrative matters so they can spend more time in church planting. Sandra is involved in the community with mums, building relationships through crafts, cooking and chats for the purpose of sharing the Gospel.
