Rick & Karen Vogsberger

Dominican Replublic

Married since June 22, 2007, committing themselves to live out their lives for Jesus, Rick and Karen never could have imagined that God would prepare them to one day become overseas missionaries. God first planted missions in their hearts by the opportunity to serve in their hometown church in Cincinnati which then led to the importance of getting out of debt, their eyes being opened to the need of an open door for foster care and that later magnified on a global scale through multiple international mission trips. Over time, seeds of significant experiences had grown into a specific direction on their lives that they couldn’t ignore, reinforced by a clear command from the Holy Spirit- they must “GO” to serve the people of the Dominican Republic!

Along with 3 of their children- Colin, Valerie and Vincent (their two oldest- Austin and Bradyn, now adults, live in the United States), the family has lived in Santiago, Dominican Republic since August 2019. Today, Rick and Karen both share a strong love for the Lord, people and missions that brings continuous joy in contentment. Their hearts desire is to see souls saved, Christians discipled and communities transformed by the love of Jesus.
