About Us
The Caldwells moved to Graz, Austria in July of 2004.
They are currently serving there as church planters
through the Baptist Bible Fellowship International. Their
sending church is Central Baptist Church (CBC) in Sulphur
Springs, Texas. Along with CBC they are also sponsored by
numerous other churches, as well as a few generous
individuals, located across the United States.
Danny and Krista met in 1997 while attending Baptist
Bible College in Springfield, Missouri. They were married
on August 6, 1999. In May of 2000, they left Springfield
to serve as interns at Central Baptist Church in Sulphur
Springs, Texas. They completed their internship in May of
2002 and spent the next two years raising the necessary
financial support to live and minister in Austria.
Danny was raised just outside of Sulphur Springs, Texas
in a community called Flora. His parents led him to the
Lord at his bedside when he was six years old. In the
summer of 1995, at youth camp, he surrendered to go into
the ministry. As a Bible college student he felt God
calling him to minister overseas.
Krista was raised in the Philippine Islands. Her parents,
Terry and Jennae Wiese, ministered there for over 25
years. Hallmark Baptist church in Fort Worth, Texas is
her home church. Krista placed her faith in Christ as a
college student. She surrendered to minister overseas as
a college student, as well.
Nathaniel was born May 20, 2004 in Fort Worth, Texas. For
all but the first two months of his life, Austria has
been his home. Nathan brings so much laughter and joy to
our family. He started Kindergarten in January 2008. He
has quickly made friends and is already picking up the
language. He likes playing cars, building blocks,
wrestling with Daddy and Micah, and eating lots of fruit!
Micah was born October 12, 2006 in Graz, Austria. He is a
wonderful addition to our family. Micah likes to eat and
laugh. He likes playing with toy cars and clothes (folded
or not), wrestling with Daddy and Nate, and taking naps.
He adores his big brother and follows him everywhere.
Danny and Krista pray that they will set a Godly example
for Nathan and Micah to follow and that they will come to
know Christ when they are older. Both boys have already
been so helpful in the ministry here and they don’t even
know it yet.
