Trailhead LEADERSHIP


Picture
Mark and Lisa Carter
Executive Director

Mark and Lisa have been involved in full-time ministry for over 30 years. In that time they have served with amazing churches as youth leaders and as lead pastor.  They have also had the privilege to work together with a number of effective organizations, individuals, missionaries, and international leaders to support and help develop churches, colleges, community centers, orphanages, sports centers, and language centers around the world.  Mark has years of experience serving on various ministry boards working with teams that are making a difference for Christ!

Probably the greatest passion Mark has is connecting stateside churches and people to global missions.  Through his leadership, hundreds have personally experienced the mission field first-hand.  Seeing a new church or community center built in a city with little to no Christian message, is one of the most fulfilling experiences that drives this organization.  And seeing people from the states discover their own "aha moment" for global missions, is what fuels the passion!  Mark and Lisa both share a strong desire and passion to make a spiritual difference in the lives of real people, and bring a message of hope and love to church families in developing nations.

Penny Brown
Trailhead Treasurer

​Penny's passion for helping people become the best version of themselves shows in all aspects of her life. Penny has demonstrated this in her 15+ years of leading women's Bible studies, encouraging her Mary Kay team and clients, and working her full-time career as a Project Manager Consultant. Penny's love for mission work began in 2004, when she was part of a team that built a church in a tiny village on the outskirts of Brasilia, Brazil. In 2015, Penny also had the opportunity to take her daughter on the first Trailhead mission trip to Nicaragua. 
 
Besides being “Mr. Handyman” to his friends and family, Penny's husband, Todd, also works as a Certified Salesforce Developer. In their free time you can find Penny and Todd riding their Ultra Limited Harley Davidson, spending time having fun with their grown children, Connor and Alexis, or working on a total home makeover project on her recently purchased childhood home.
