Kelly Green Global Missions
Brandon FL

Kelly Green grew up on the west coast of California with a single mom who did her best to raise three children alone. Surrounded by addictions and a dysfunctional family structure, Kelly learned at an early age to try to fill the voids in his life with those same “escapes” being demonstrated to him. Being a part of the counter culture, Kelly fell into the spiraling lifestyle of his environment. Experimenting with cult religion and an amoral lifestyle in his search for significance, Kelly dropped out of high school and wandered, seeking something to fill the emptiness of his life.

In the Midwest, while visiting church with a friend, Kelly came to know the Lord. Those who observed the “hippie from California” transform were amazed to watch the saving power of God completely and radically make him a new creation in Christ. Going back to high school to get his diploma at the age of 20, Kelly was discipled by a godly mentor in the church. Not long after his graduation from high school, Kelly was called to the Gospel ministry in 1971.

Kelly then attended the University of Mobile, where he met his wife, Beth Thomas. They were married in November of 1974. Upon graduating from the university, this high school dropout went on to obtain a Master’s of Divinity from Southwestern Seminary. Kelly worked on staff in various churches for over eight years and was called into full time evangelism in 1979. He founded Kelly Green Evangelistic Association (KGEA) and for 30 years has visited over 1500 churches and travelled globally sharing the gospel. Missions and evangelism has been his passion and his desire is to equip people by giving them a hands-on experience in kingdom-driven work through organizing and leading short-term mission teams both locally and overseas.

“What we are as believers is “missional,” and that isn’t optional. Geographical location isn’t the issue. Where you do missions is wherever you are planted. However, we believe you make the biggest impact where the fields are most receptive. The way Jesus did ministry is our model – caring for the sick, training leaders and sharing the Gospel so that people can be introduced into God’s Kingdom. This is our goal as Kelly Green Global. “— Kelly
