DREW AND LELA MAHANEY

Drew and Lela are excited to be serving with Armed Forces Baptist Missions. They are passionate about sharing and exemplifying the love of Jesus through discipleship. Growing up in a military family gave Drew the burden to reach our military heroes at Camp Carroll, South Korea. After spending several years as the pastor of Armed Forces Baptist Church in Waegwon, Drew has turned the church over to a national pastor.

Drew was raised in a Christian military home and was strongly influenced by the training and mentorship of his father. He was born again at the age of seventeen while in Korea with his family. Shortly after salvation, God called Drew to missions in South Korea. After graduating from Bible College, he married Lela.

Lela was also raised in a Christian home and accepted Christ as a young teenager. She had the privilege of growing up in a missions minded church, and her parents were influential in directing her toward missions. She has had a burden for people in foreign lands and prayed God would lead her to a husband that was called into missions. Drew and Lela were married in 2011. Lela is involved in working with the military ladies as well as raising their three boys, Eric, Nathan, and Reagan.

The Lord has directed the Mahaney family to a new ministry and they are excited about opening the Freedom Center near Fort Cavazos, TX. Freedomcentertx.com
