Your Hosts
Doug & Bernie
Doug and Bernie Campbell met in Bible college in 1980. They have been married over 40 years, have 5 married children and 14 grandchildren. Doug has a background of 26 years in computer services and information technology management. Bernie’s background is a wife, mom, and homeschool teacher for their children.
They have 40 plus years of church leadership experience. Doug has served as church head usher, board trustee, elder, and Christian school board member. Bernie has served as nursery coordinator, and Sunday school teacher. Together they have served as mission board chairs, youth group directors, and young adult leaders. They have led several mission trips to Belize, and in the US. Besides leading missions trips, they have also been to Nova Scotia, and Mexico doing service projects, as well as attended a Bible dedication in the Philippines. They were missionaries with Wycliffe Bible Translators for 12 years, serving in recruitment, people engagement, and partnership development coaching.
They have personally experienced the beauty of church and missionary life but they have also experienced the sheer ugliness of it.
They are excited to serve as your hosts at Whispering Cedars. Their hope is to provide a safe place where those serving in Christian ministry can find rest, relaxation, refreshment, restoration, and Spiritual renewal.
