God grabbed a hold of Lorrie McConaughy’s heart in March of 2005 after years of living in a backslidden state. Through His love He taught her to completely rely on Him and serve Him with everything she had. After 3 years of walking with the Lord and being dependent on Him, She heard a sermon by K.P. Yohannan about service and sacrifice. It was then that God first opened Lorrie’s heart to Gospel for Asia (GFA). At that time, she dreamed of working there full-time, but never thought she would be brave enough to do so. Then she heard another sermon on the radio and the Pastor said, “If God has put something on your heart, don’t ignore it, you’ll be so sorry, step out and do it!” Right then she started praying, seeking God and talking to her sons about the possibility of doing God’s work full-time through GFA.

After seeking God and several interviews, Lori was asked to come on as full-time staff with GFA in Texas. Knowing that this was the direction God was calling her, Lorrie quit her high-paying job, raised support, got rid of about ¾ of her possessions and moved to Texas.

Now, as a missionary from with Gospel for Asia, sent out by CCEA, Lorrie works in the finance department in the GFA main office located in Carrollton, Texas. Serving as a missionary in the states, Lorrie is able to assist GFA in the spreading of the Gospel throughout the continent of Asia. GFA national missionaries plant over 17 churches a day, and are willing to face persecution to bring the Gospel to the unreached of Asia.
