Director Biography - Erik Laursen

In the Spring of 2008 God radically stirred the hearts of Erik and his wife, Spirit, to lay down the “American Dream” and pursue His dream of seeing true worship arise from every tribe in Africa. In 2011, He launched them into ministry through Every Home for Christ in Colorado Springs where Erik worked directly with Christian leaders in 105+ different nations with a primary focus of overseeing offices in 37 African nations. In 2013, God led Erik to serve as Executive Director for New Covenant Missions, headquartered in his wife’s hometown. The experience Erik gained on the ground in so many different cultures created an ambition in his soul to mobilize the body of Christ to empower indigenous missionaries to preach the glorious news of Jesus in the darkest, most difficult and unreached areas of the world.
