Eric & Megan Kelly

Eric and Megan love assisting the MTW Panama team by supporting and equipping under-resourced pastors and church planters in rural Panama. Their work is focused on encouraging and supporting believers through biblical studies programs which raise up local leaders. Eric and Megan are humbled and encouraged as they learn from and do life as a family with the Indigenous peoples they work with.

Throughout childhood, Eric had the privilege of watching his parents’ involvement in Native American/First Nations ministry. This upbringing built the foundation for Eric’s passion and heart for Indigenous people groups and cultures. Megan was also blessed by watching her parents open their home to children coming from all different walks of life and cultures. This fostered Megan’s desire to study Spanish as a means of sharing hope across language barriers.

After graduating from college, the newly married couple moved to Nicaragua where Eric worked as a teacher and Megan partnered with local missionaries for two years. Their call to care for every culture and people group deepened together as a couple and as a new family. Now, through partnering with MTW, they continue to live and work in Central America as a family of six.
