About the Samples' Ministry
Lita and Rick serve in the San Francisco Bay Area, commissioned in 2002. Lita and Rick have always felt a sense of compassion for internationals and see God’s call on their lives to forge a welcoming presence among the immigrants, refugees, and other internationals in their sphere of ministry.
