In this episode of the Go and Send Podcast, Steve Swope shares his journey from youth ministry in Michigan to serving missionary families in Bolivia and now supporting missionary kids (MKs) through Ethnos 360's MK Care Program. Steve and his wife, Becky, have dedicated decades to caring for missionary children, helping them navigate the unique challenges of growing up across cultures. Steve opens up about his path to missions—from growing up in a missions-minded church to attending the Urbana Missions Conference as a newlywed. He walks through 15 years of teaching and leading at Christian schools in Bolivia, the joys and heartaches of serving overseas, and the difficult transition when their school closed due to political instability. Now back in the U.S., Steve and Becky minister to MKs through retreats, debriefing, hospitality, and their podcast Base Camp. This conversation offers valuable insight into the often-overlooked ministry of caring for missionary kids, the realities of raising a family overseas, and practical ways churches can support MKs and their families.
