Frank and Genie Summers are Co-Founders of the Family Missions Company based in Louisiana; they immersed themselves in Catholic missionary life with their 7 children. Together, they have ministered the Word to over 40 countries and were instrumental in forming and sustaining Catholic lay missionaries and evangelists. A story that began with Frank and Genie Summers nearly 40 years ago has now flourished and continues to grow! 

They were, once, a family that embraced a completely secular lifestyle; a choice to return to their Catholic roots after a profound conversion helped them seek God’s will in their lives. Frank Summers and Genie Summers, open their hearts and share their missionary experiences with our host Peter Karutz.
