God changed Mike and Becky Sexton's lives when they became Awana leaders in 1980. They were trained by their Directors and began memorizing verses with their students.

As members of the Senior Field Leadership Team, they help serve the U.S. missionary team and also have a part in developing Awana in the UK & Ireland. Mike and Becky live in Sacramento, CA, where they enjoy serving as T&T leaders in their local church. They have five married children and eleven grandchildren, eight of whom are in Awana.
