Kelly and April moved to Madrid, Spain in 2003 and over the next 12 years helped to start three faith communities: Mountainview International Church, Oasis Madrid Church, and Decoupage. They are originally from the cornfields of Iowa in the United States, where they were married in 1999. They have three children who were all born in Spain.

In 2015, they moved from the center of Madrid to a pueblo in Asturias, a northern province in Spain. Through coaching, creativity, experience, and persistence, they start and support missional communities in Spain, specializing in culture development at every level.
