Carolyn Benson

MissionPREP Director Assistant and Program Assistant

Carolyn counts it a privilege to be able to use her teaching and cross-cultural experience to help prepare God’s servants for effective cross-cultural ministry and debriefing them as they return. With her husband, Ken were Global Workers in Portugal for 13 years where they raised their two daughters and were blessed to welcome two Angolan girls into their home for over four years. Carolyn and Ken also served in short-term projects in First Nations villages in the Northwest Territories and Northern Manitoba. She has been involved in training and debriefing global workers since 2011. 

As the mom of two daughters who grew up overseas, Carolyn enjoys encouraging children, teens and their parents as they navigate the joys and challenges of living cross culturally. She enjoys hiking, camping, spending time with her grandchildren and recognizing God at work in amazing ways. 

One of Carolyn’s favourite verses is Psalm 46:10 “Be still and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations.”
