Dr. John Easter
Assemblies of God World Missions Executive Director Dr. John L. Easter’s vision is to see AGWM’s 2,700 global workers serving in 155 countries joined by the next generation of laborers, and new fields opened for missionary service. His heart is that the sons and daughters of our local churches may discern and respond to God’s call to cross-cultural missions and plant the church among the unreached.
As a pastor, missionary, and educator, Dr. Easter is passionate about mobilizing the next generation for frontier missions. Serving in Africa for 22 years, he trained church planters and missionaries to carry the Gospel across the continent. His cross-generational focus extends intimately to his family. John and Cheryl are deeply devoted to their children; Kevin;John-John and his wife Calissa; and Mitchell, his wife Alyssa, and their four children.
As AGWM executive director, Dr. Easter believes fervent intercession and consistent discipleship are the keys to raising a new generation of laborers.The local church must take up its calling to nurture, disciple and send out its sons and daughters to proclaim the Good News.

Please Note that you will need to RSVP for the Network Sponsored Dinner on Monday Evening.

Dr. Paul & Carol Alexander
Paul and Carol Alexander were born and raised in South Africa. They completed their schooling in Johannesburg. It was during this time that they met and so began a lifetime of Christian service together.
After graduating from high school, Paul and Carol enrolled at the British AG Bible College known as Mattersey Hall. Soon after graduating, they married in the small English village where the College was located. Global travel followed, taking them to 22 nations in a two-year period. They pastored briefly in the UK before returning to South Africa.
The following years were filled with challenges and opportunities. Eventually they led their home church. Paul was required to serve in the military as South Africa had conscription at the time. He served as a Chaplain spending many months helping during the trauma of the Angolanbush war. Paul and Carol founded Africa School of Missions in 1985, and this institution quickly became the major catalyst for missionary mobilization in the nation.
After seven years leading a great mother church in Australia, the Alexanders were recruited to serve their Alma Mater. Paul was the President of Mattersey Hall for seven years. In 2012 Paul was invited to be the President of Trinity Bible College in Ellendale, North Dakota, and two years later Carol assumed the role of Dean of the Graduate School at Trinity. The past 10+ years have seen consistent growth at Trinity, accompanied by significant campus development and the achieving of financial stability.
Paul and Carol both hold PhD degrees from the University of Bangor, Wales. They were married in 1976 and have two adult children. Anna is married to Rich and they are parents to Ava andTylan. Jason lives in Los Angeles.
The Alexanders are passionate communicators and motivators. They remain in demand nationally and internationally.
