Geir & Elyssa Klokkhammer
Vision: Healthy, holy families- from conception through the challenges of everyday life
Serving with: Youth With A Mission (YWAM)
The summer before we married (2022), as we were praying about how God wanted to use us as a couple, ‘family ministry’ was greatly impressed upon us. As two singles in their mid-to-late 30s, getting married for the first time and with no children yet, neither of us knew what that was supposed to look like practically. But God has been revealing bits and pieces along the way ever since! He has equipped us with a host of skills and passions: Geir is a skilled electrician, mechanic, and pianist while Elyssa is a nurse, dancer, and newly minted midwife.
We are passionate about:
• Whole person health (physical, emotional/mental, and spiritual)
• Discipleship of men, women, children, and families
• Training & teaching
• Missionary/pastoral care
• Mechanics (Geir)
• The battle for life surrounding maternal-child health (Elyssa)
The practical “what” we are doing has changed over the seasons, and we believe will continue to change as we remain submitted to God’s guidance and the Holy Spirit’s leading. We are committed to long-term, sustainable healthy missions and ministry not only for our family, but for other missionaries as well. We have and continue to receive training in: counseling, missionary care, marriage communication, and debriefing.

Thank you for partnering with us as we pray toward, believe for, and walk out our part of Ephesians 4:11-13, “So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ” (NIV; emphasis added). Can you imagine?! Oh what a glorious day that will be!
