Charlie & Frauke S
Charlie and Frauke met in a Folk Religions class in the School of Intercultural Studies at Fuller Theological Seminary after Charlie had returned from working in Togo, W. Africa and before Frauke left Germany for Nepal to work in a rehabilitation hospital for those with leprosy. About a decade later they reunited in Grenoble, France. Married in 2000, they work together as a psychologist, Charlie, and psychiatrist, Frauke, sharing their God-given desire to support the mental health needs of global workers and others in ministry.
Frauke and Charlie particular passion is for strengthening the resilience of global ministry workers, who face high levels of stress and trauma in the locations where they live and the type of work they do. Providing training, retreats, counseling, psychiatric care, and consultations, Charlie and Frauke focus on the emotional, spiritual, and physical needs of these workers, their families, and organizations.
While based in North Carolina, God has called them to minister in the Middle East, Asia, Europe, and North America. Frequently traveling or using video conferencing technologies, Charlie and Frauke continue to serve those global workers who have responded to God’s call.
