My wife Julia Weaver started Covenant Dream Hospitality on a shoestring budget after seeing too many abandoned children living in the streets outside her little restaurant in Monrovia, Liberia. She felt strongly that she must do something to help. At first, she helped a few children have a good meal each morning and evening at the restaurant. As time passed, she was able to send them to school. So Covenant Dreams Hospitality Children Welfare home was born and approved by the Liberian government's Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Protection. Today there are more than 20 children with 4 full/part-time employees helping Julia with the day-to-day activities such as: cooking, house cleaning, laundry, facility oversight and security, along with making sure they are getting good grades in school by tutoring those that need help. The needs are tremendous and additional support is required each month as we have many more children that are eligible for the program but cannot add them without the necessary funding. We are grateful to God for his provision and how far Covenant Dreams Hospitality has come so far. We do appreciate all who support this necessary cause. MOTO: Romans 12: 13 NLT “When God's people are in need, be ready to help them. Always be eager to practice hospitality.” Peace and Love to you all! Jay Weaver Chairman of the Board- Liberia
We are the Wacky Weaver Family! We are Greg and Jen along with our three wacky and fun kids, Makayla, Ezekiel, and Zoey. We are honored to live and serve amongst the Portuguese people in the Porto, Portugal area since 2016. We have been married since 2003 and serving in missions since before that. Many years ago, the Lord laid on our hearts a calling to equip and empower people with the Gospel, for the Gospel. We have loved learning and growing with others and witnessing the Lord pursue His creation. Greg and Jen are part of a team called Team Works International whose goal is to equip and empower healthy missionary teams serving in various parts of the world. TeamWorks serves by building intentional community. This is accomplished by the Team Works team working with on field missionary teams. The on field team members will gain awareness of how they each perceive the world differently through their own 'lens' of personality, cultural background, values, and communication style, thus empowering them to rebuild their own team culture. This will not be an ‘either/or’, but a ‘third way’ culture. Through mutual change, they will find common ground to deal with misunderstandings and come to see their God-given differences as a way to build community. Greg and Jen see the value in a preventive-care approach, rather than waiting for teams to explode, leaving the scars and wounds in its wake. Greg and Jen also have a passion to use their leadership and team development skills beyond the church building and into the everyday communities. They have gone into schools to teach communication skills, team building, cross cultural engagement. They have also worked with local companies offering space for coaching, consulting, and team development. This vessel has allowed them to show how the gospel is alive and it interacts with all areas of our lives. They come from the perspective that people have been created and designed to participate in this world by a Creator. Their hope is that they can serve teams and individuals wherever God invites them into.

Greg and Jackie Stenson - Virginia Greg has pastored for 34+ years in part-time and full-time roles. During his early years as he pastored part-time, he worked as a Conference Youth Minister for his denomination. Over the years he has mentored many young men who now serve in various ministries. Now living in Virginia and pastoring part-time at a small church, the Lord continues to bring young men into his life who are exploring God’s call on their lives to become pastors. Greg seeks to encourage and enable them to grow into the ministry positions where God is leading them and continues to mentor them as they face new and sometimes difficult situations of pastoral ministry. With the graying of the clergy across our nation and the declining moral fabric of our culture, Greg believes it’s vital for the health of God’s church to raise up young men who are on fire for Jesus and stand solidly upon His Word to lead His church! His desire is to seek young men the Lord is calling, walk with them in determining the ministry God is calling them to serve in, encourage them to take steps of faith as needed, and mentor them through the process.
