David & Cheri Kelso

At the age of 5, David was led to Christ by his father, who had recently trusted Christ himself. Recognising God's call to full-time ministry while in university, after receiving his degree David joined Word of Life to assist Larry and Cindi Bollback in starting Word of Life in Portugal in 1976.

Cheri received Christ at the age of 12 at Word of Life in New York. Upon completing Bible school, she and David were married in 1979.

In 1985, the Kelsos were invited to participate in a camp Word of Life organised in Bristol. The Lord used this trip to burden their hearts for the spiritual needs of the British young people. The following year they relocated to the UK.
Since 1991, David has directed the ministry of Word of Life in the British Isles.

The Kelsos have two children, Joshua and Jessica.
