THE SHEPHERDS

Founders
Greg and Maria Shepherd founded RTS Missions in 2006 after leaving their jobs in 2005 for full-time ministry.
In October 2014, the Shepherds moved to Haiti and lived there until October 2019.
They have been local and global missionaries for nearly two decades. In September 2020, God expanded their ministry by calling them to the Dominican Republic.
The Shepherds live in Land O Lakes, FL and have one grown son. They travel to the DR monthly with teams and overseeing the growing ministry.

Each person giving a donation has the opportunity to select an option to cover this fee. If you decide to cover this fee, that portion is also tax-deductible.
