The call of God upon our family is to be Missionary Evangelists to the Menominee Nation in northeast Wisconsin. We are sent out of Shawano Baptist Church in Shawano, Wisconsin, to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the Menominee Nation. Our vision is to preach the Gospel to the Menominee people and see them trust in Jesus alone to save them from their sins. After they receive Jesus as their Savior, we will teach the importance of baptism and see them baptized right after they are saved. We will teach them to observe all things that Jesus commanded us in His Word. By the Lord’s hand of power, we will see independent, fundamental Baptist churches planted on the Menominee Indian Reservation. We believe it is the Lord’s will that every church planted should have a Native man who has the call of God on his life to pastor his people in their walk with God as a body of believers. We have a vision to see the Menominee reach their own people and plant other churches on their reservation. We also have a vision to see the Menominee Indians not only reach their people but also get a burden to reach other Native American tribes with the Gospel. We believe God wants to do something special amongst the Menominee!
Marty Roembke: I grew up in Martinsville, Indiana. When I was 10 years old, I received Jesus Christ as my Savior at Hoosier Hills Baptist Camp. When I was a teenager, I surrendered to go into the ministry. Though I got away from the Lord for a time, He has worked in my life significantly over the last few years. At Martinsville Baptist Tabernacle, the Lord grew me into a Sunday morning bus captain and youth leader in Reformers Unanimous. When my wife and I were married in 2016, the Lord moved us to Crossroads Baptist Church in Indianapolis, Indiana. Immediately, we wereplugged into the bus ministry and I became the youth pastor underneath the leadership of Pastor Guy Solarek. In February 2017, the Lord called me into church planting. He used First Chronicles 28:10 to show me His will for my life, “Take heed now; for the Lord hath chosen thee to build an house for the sanctuary: be strong, and do it.” Over the next few months of prayer and seeking the Lord, He placed a burden on my heart to reach the original unreached people groups of America, the Native Americans. As we have been working with our pastor and continuing to seek counsel from veteran missionaries, the Lord has been placing things together. Now a graduate from Indiana Baptist College, the Lord has directed us to grow under the leadership of Pastor Matthew Weber in Shawano, Wisconsin. Shawano Baptist Church is seven miles south of the Menominee Indian Reservation, where we will begin our first work with the Natives. We are expecting God to do a mighty work amongst the Menominee Indians.
Logan Michelle: I grew up in a Christian home in the small town of Clay City, Indiana. I made a profession of salvation at the age of six; however, I do not believe I made this profession based on faith. By the time I was ten years old, I had learned many verses in my church’s Bible Club and the Lord began to use these verses to show me my sinful, lost condition. At age ten, after a night of thunderstorms at Hoosier Hills Baptist Camp, I asked Jesus Christ to save me from my sin and became sure I would spend eternity with Him. A few years later, my church started a bus ministry and thisministry grew my heart dramatically for the Lord’s work. At fourteen, I surrendered to do whatever the Lord had for me. As soon as I graduated high school, I headed to Indiana Baptist College, where I eventually met my husband. One year after I graduated Bible college, Marty and I were married. It is an honor to spend one day at a time with the Lord for the rest of our life together and I am thrilled that this includes following the Lord to reach Native Americans.
