Don and Paula CabeenTEAM - Spain
Don and Paula Cabeen have been serving with TEAM in Spain since 1982. Their primary focus has been church planting. They are currently teamed up with two other missionary families working in several towns in the eastern end of the province of Seville in southern Spain. They are involved in evangelism and discipleship. The small church produces a weekly fifteen minute TV program which is aired on the local TV station. Involvement in community needs, such as drug rehabilitation and other such social needs has opened numerous doors in evangelism.

Ron and Claudine GlynnAWANA
The Glynns presently minister to over 195 churches in Iowa that are registered to use the Awana ministry.
They learned about Awana when the first of their three daughters became involved in Cubbies. Later, they became leaders. Ron was a leader for a short time previously to his being a Commander for 10 years. Claudine was a Sparks leader than director for years prior to 1994. Since 1994 Claudine has stayed busy assisting Ron and has still found time over the years to be a JV and than a Varsity director.
December 12, 1995 was the date Ron and Claudine Glynn were told they would be AWANA missionaries in the Iowa Territory. “Reaching boys and girls with the Gospel of Grace is a mission we will never outgrow,” say the Glynns. Currently they are seeking other families to join them as AWANA missionaries in Iowa. With thirteen new churches added this club year, they are in need of help.
Ron and Claudine have three grown married daughters and each of them became mothers this past year. Three grandbabies have added much joy to the Glynn’s lives. Another grandchild is expected this year.
Ron works parttime at HyVee and Claudine is an RN at the hospital where she has been for thirty years.

Having a real burden for the lost, the Hamm’s reach out to the refugees and others in poor conditions. They are friends and encouragers to both believers and non-believers.
