| Alton and his two younger sisters, Sarah & Rebekah |
Alton Wayne Cale II was born in California in 1988. When he was 10 years old his dad got a job transfer to North Carolina. There his family started attending Grace Bible Church. Alton was raised in a Christian home, but did not have the personal relationship with Jesus Christ that he could have. He later rededicated his life, and decided that God had clearly called ALL to take the gospel to every nation, tribe, and tongue.

Grace Olivia Chapmon was born in New York in 1989, while her parents were church planters there. Two years after she was born her parents moved to Johannesburg South Africa to do church planting. Grace spent the next 14 years of her life there, until the family moved back to the states. Her father then took a pastorate job in North Carolina, which is where Grace & Alton met. Grace grew up being taught Biblical truths, and in 2009 she decided it was time to take God's Word more seriously and dedicate her life to serving the Lord through missions.
Alton and Grace started dating in November 2007, and got engaged in May of 2009.
With only a three month engagement (which was perfect in my opinion), we were joined in marriage on July 18th 2009. It was the most beautiful summer day; we could not have asked for better weather! Three weeks after the wedding we packed up the car to head to our new home at New Tribes Bible Institute, in Jackson Michigan.We spent two years there, and graduated in May 2011. In November 2011 we welcomed Riah Skye into our family, and what a wonderful blessing she is!
Our goal in life is to be obedient to God's command in Matthew 28:19-20. God has said to ALL believers to take the gospel to all nations. Presently there are around 2500 unreached tribal groups around the world. Unreached tribal groups means that they have never heard the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and that they have no Bible in their own language. This is our mission...to give EVERYONE an opportunity to receive the saving message of Christ.
Romans 10:13-15 says, "For "everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!"
We are waiting for the funds to finish our training with New Tribes Mission so that we can GO.
BE THE FEET!!!
