MTW WESTERN HUB
Building Connections Close to You
Our West Coast hub and Central hubs have merged and are now the Western hub.
MTW'S Western hub is a connection point for regional events, training, and help if you're interested in serving one year or longer. If you are a new church starting a missions ministry or your church has an established global outreach, we can help you through planning, mobilizing, and connecting you with global PCA church-planting works.

MEET THE TEAM
Jerry Gibson
Director

A native of Texas, Jerry graduated from Dallas Baptist University with a degree in theology and biblical studies. He has been involved in cross-cultural ministry for most of his life, going back to his earliest and most formative years serving with Native Peoples in South Dakota. Jerry has also formally served in cross-cultural missions since 2001, including ministry in three low-income urban areas of Dallas. He has traveled to more nations than he can remember to serve alongside missionaries and indigenous believers.
Most recently, Jerry served as the senior director of missions and church planting at Park Cities Presbyterian in Dallas, where he helped develop the process for preparing new missionaries called “Thrive.” Much more important than credentials, Jerry hopes his years of experience (sometimes learning things the hard way) will benefit him in this new position with MTW. Jerry has been married to Kerry for 20 years. They have two daughters.

Tina Simpson
Candidate Specialist

Tina Simpson was raised on the mission field in North India. After college while she was teaching sixth grade in Chattanooga, she spent three summers in Australia serving with the MTW team. The Lord then called her to serve with MTW’s church-planting team in Nagoya, Japan, where she taught English as a Second Language and was involved with campus ministry. She has now worked in the Atlanta office for over 30 years, talking with potential candidates as they discern their call to missions and connecting them with fields, as well as mobilizing missionaries and helping them through the application process.. She is married with four children and serves on the missions committee of ChristChurch Presbyterian in Atlanta.
Becky Bronson
Candidate Specialist

Becky's love for other cultures began early, growing up in South Texas surrounded by Mexican culture and heritage. Her first missions trip in high school took her to interior Mexico, and she began to grow a love for Spanish and language learning that later took her to study in Spain in college. As a recent college graduate, she moved to East Asia to travel and teach English, and was floored by the millions who had never heard of Jesus, God, or grace! As newlyweds, Becky and her husband Andrew served in Thailand with MTW from 2006–2008 and 2012–2017 and helped plant two churches in Bangkok, Grace City Bangkok and New City Fellowship. She loves to encourage the pursuit of missions in both churches and with its people to consider how their gifts might be used to bring the nations to Himself.
PREVIOUSLY RECORDED EVENTS

DIVERSITY IN MISSIONS
At MTW, we believe that sending more diverse missionaries better reflects the image of God and helps build more effective ministry as people of color bring their voices and gospel stories to those waiting to hear. If you would like more info about how the MTW Diversifi initiative and RADD (Reformed And Diverse Delegates) can help you in your mission, please contact one of our diversity mobilizers.
