Rollin & Wendy Grams
United World Mission
Based in Johns Island, SC, the Grams serve as “tent-making” missionaries through connections with various ministries and organizations. Their ministry involves international discipleship, ministry training, and theological education. Rollin works at the lay, master’s, and doctoral levels, and Wendy works in this ministry with children and a women's Bible study.
More specifically, Rollin works with the Ridley Institute to develop and oversee the Certificate in Christian Studies; prepare courses, teach, and tutor students at the lay and master's levels; and oversee the development of international partnerships (such as East Mountain in Port Elizabeth–we are trying to develop more partnerships all the time). Second, Rollin works with East Mountain in its development as a young mission society. Third, Rollin works with the Oxford Centre for Religion and Public Life's PhD program, which is an international program for students from the 2/3 world. In addition, Rollin writes and publishes every year, primarily with an eye on what is needed in the church and mission contexts (as opposed to purely academic publishing). Wendy helps with administration for the Ridley Institute.
