Who are the Cundiffs?
We are preparing to serve in Riga, Latvia, where Quintin will be teaching at the Luther Academy of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Latvia, an LCMS partner church. He will also assist in the pastoral formation of ministry candidates who come from around Eurasia to attend the academy. Quintin hopes to be involved in the start of an English-language worship service in Riga for expats and English speakers.
Quintin is a native of Oberlin, Kansas. He has a bachelor’s degree in history from Concordia University in Seward, Nebraska; a Master of Divinity degree from Concordia Seminary in St. Louis, Missouri; and soon will be awarded a Doctor of Ministry degree from Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, Indiana. During his 10-year career, he has served congregations in Oregon, New Mexico, and Nebraska. He assisted with planting St. Andrew Lutheran Church in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and served as the pastoral counselor for the LCMS Rocky Mountain District’s Lutheran Women’s Missionary League.
Lindsay grew up in Farnhamville, Iowa. She has earned a diploma of Practical Nursing from Hamilton College in Lincoln, Nebraska, and an associate degree in nursing from Central Community College in Kearney, Nebraska. In her nearly 15 years of nursing, Lindsay has cared for patients in Missouri, Iowa, Oregon, New Mexico, and Nebraska. At church, she has served as a Sunday school teacher, a parish nurse, a newsletter editor, and a directory coordinator, among other things!
Quintin and Lindsay will have their 10-year-old son, Carter, along for the journey. He will be attending the International School of Riga. He loves Jesus, reading, history, movies, video games, science fiction, and hanging out with friends.
