“Wake up, you sons + daughters, you were made for so much more. Wake up, you sons + daughters, wake up, you’re the image of God.” - jonathan and melissa helser

Luke has preached Good News, I’ve given words of encouragement. He has reached out to you on a street, I’ve created a home you felt welcomed in. You’ve heard our love story and it changed you. You heard Luke’s testimony and it resonated with you. You’ve watched me love my family and been inspired. We’ve loved well and you’ve known we are in love with Jesus because of this -- that’s what this is about. 

We are everyday missionaries — wanting all to know that they are particularly loved by the God. Music is our ticket to the nations. Recording and performing under the band name Mid Air, we go where we are led, play our original music, and stir up faith. Our first album was released June of 2016 and is being played around the world in major music streaming sites as well as on several college radio stations around the United States. We have begun work on a second album set to be released from our own record label in the New Year (2018). Currently we are based out of Kansas City, MO while Luke attends a Music Academy to learn audio production. 

During our first trip to the city when we had begun to feel that the Lord was directing us to move here we stopped to check out the rental house we had a deposit down on. In no time we learned we had been scammed so Luke called the man who had posed as a landlord, told him we forgave him and wanted him to call us back. When he did the following day Luke shared with him how we forgave him for wronging us the way that God forgives us to which he, an atheistic international man, responded, “I’m ready to receive this Jesus.” On the same trip we were randomly approached at a church we visited and given thirty times over what we had been robbed, in the rental deposit, of music recording equipment. 

We believe it is time to do music and missions full-time and we invite you to sow into both with your passionate support. You know our hearts, you know the Kingdom is being advanced through our lives and that we are starting fire wherever we go. 

Pray that all we encounter will become harvesters in the Kingdom!
Pray that all our children and disciples fall madly in love with Papa God!
Pray that our marriage sets the standard as a picture of Jesus and the Church!

Much love, 
Luke + Chelsea

Transparency in funding.

I felt this post was called for, especially as we celebrate reaching 1/10 of our first month's goal on our gofundme campaign ! I know that some people, if not most people, when they saw my baby registry thought I was a little ridiculous. A lot of items were not cheap. That wasn't because I was trying to live beyond our means or that I wasn't being realistic. I carefully curated a registry with specific needs for our baby, in our lifestyle, all from ethical companies and small businesses. Organic, fair trade, eco-friendly -- everything in the registry fell into one or more of these camps. Why? Because I knew that people were going to buy things for us and I wanted those purchases to positively impact all parties involved in the production of each item. Our purchasing power is real -- it can make a huge shift in the world of modern-day slavery.  Perhaps you've checked out our gofundme campaign or seen our updates and had the similar thought, "What on ea

Partnering with you.

Many of you don't know that Luke and I are musicians or that we're missionaries. Those things don't make it on social media a lot because they're just part of the fabric of our lives. We have known for awhile that we would eventually do both full time in place of day jobs and Luke supported me in making the shift first. I quit my nannying job -- and then found out we were pregnant. In a flash I had stepped into the life calling I'd always known I carried: wife & mother, but it didn't take away from the other callings I'd recognized in my single years. ••• I always knew I was going to work alongside my husband in his occupation. Something business-y, something artistic, something missional is what I saw. The first time I heard Luke's music it was just him on a guitar in a basement room but it blew me away. I became one of his biggest fans and pushed him to get on sharing it with the public. He had always meant to. We released our first album three mo

House hunting with supporters.

YOUR CONTRIBUTION TRULY BLESSES US AND FORCEFULLY ADVANCES THE KINGDOM. Thank you for believing in God and believing in us. We step out in faith as Christians, never thinking better of ourselves than any one person, but considering people's needs and long to meet them like Paul ("all things to all people") with the talent and faith that God has given us. We believe and pray for you too in this way -- 'that you may abound in every good work'! Our heart is simple: we want to see the lost come to Jesus. Currently, we are in an AirBNB near Kansas City, Missouri, in the home of a seventy-plus year-old Spirit-filled Christian couple who are full of God's presence and pouring out still in their lives. It is a true testimony to the faithfulness of God. Plus, they have so many stories of how God has prospered them in business, especially that of photography and being around some of the biggest names in the corporate and entertainment world. Praise God for believers
