Mason grew up in Trinity Baptist Church and was saved at age ten during a Wednesday evening service preached by Bro. Cotton. He surrendered his life to the Lord not long after that, and it soon became clear to him that God wanted him to serve on the mission field.
Brianna was born in Glendale, AZ. Her family moved to Big Spring soon after, where she was saved at TBC at age nine. She and Mason grew up in the youth group together and began dating during 11th grade.
Ministry was always on their horizon, and when the time came, they attended West Coast Baptist College in Lancaster, CA, to receive training in ministry. Mason graduated in 2024 with a degree in missions, and Lord willing, Brianna will complete her degree in church ministries in 2025.
During their final year at WCBC, God led Mason to accept the position of youth minister at TBC. Mason and Brianna returned from college and were married in May of 2024, then jumped right into youth ministry. They count it a privilege to serve the Lord in the church where they grew up. Their foremost desire is to bring Him glory by discipling young Christians, encouraging and equipping them to know, love, and serve God according to the purpose He has for them.
They still desire to serve God in missions, and as He leads, their plan is to begin serving in Canada following their time at TBC.
