Jeff and Christie Lothamer
Serving in the UK since 2011
Pioneer Ministry: Local Church Development and Network Leadership
After 10 years of serving with Greater Europe Mission, we feel it is time to become an associate member with GEM, allowing us more direct use of our time serving within our British organizations.
It is our great joy to have left those mission projects in the capable hands of British leaders as we pursue the next season of our call - which has always and still does center around: pioneering, discipleship, mission and Jesus’ church!
It was our joy to help set up GEM in the UK 10 years ago. GEM now has over 80 missionaries on the ground in the Uk. Over the years we have been privileged to work with Reign Ministries training youth leaders, plant and pioneer a network of churches called Journey Communities in the Bicester area. God saw fit to allow us to start a couple of key businesses/ventures during that time that are still running today: FLTR Coffee and Bicester Badgers Basketball.
Our Current Missionary Call

Jeff and Christie Lothamer have spent the past decade pioneering the Journey Collective, a growing network of microchurches. While the collective is now supported by UK-based leadership, the Lothamers continue to play a crucial role in guiding its local mission as elders.
Jeff oversees FLTRCoffee, Journey’s community coffee shop, and together they lead a microchurch that regularly extends the love of Jesus to those passionate about basketball and Living in their neighbourhood.
Jeff is the director of Kairos Connexion, a family of churches across the UK that collaborates with diverse church streams, with a strong focus on mission and discipleship.
Christie is spearheading the Microchurch Network, an arm of Kairos Connexion that supports leaders making disciples among niche groups to see new microchurches emerge in the UK.
Thank you for your support!
We are so pleased for our partnership with Senders Together for our missionary support stewardship,
allowing the majority of the monies you give to go directly to our missionary work in the UK.
