Rod Hassler (team leader)
I grew up in Minneapolis, MN and lived in Colorado and Florida before moving out to Los Angeles about 5 years ago to work in cinematography. I used to think Christians that went on global outreach trips were a little nutty, and now I'm leading one! (I still haven't decided if I was wrong.) God opened my eyes to the injustices in India, and I'm excited to do what I can for the beautiful people there.
Andrew Bruntel
Andrew grew up in rural south central Pennsylvania and moved to L.A. after graduating from Maryland Institute College of Art. Since coming to L.A. he's kept busy creating art in various forms as well as directing numerous short film and music video projects. He's currently at work writing longer form projects and on a new children's program for PBS. This will be his second trip to India, his first was in March of this year.

Jessica Burton
Hi my name is Jessica, I am originally from Detroit Michigan but have lived in LA for almost four years. I have a great passion and love for people which was my main motivation for going to India. I am concerned about global human rights. I am curious to learn about and understand life from other peoples perspective. I also desire to be a servant and to give and be helpful. My overall hope is for people to experience transformation in mind, body, and spirit and to live a life of freedom.
Greyson Chadwick
Hey! My name is Greyson and I was born and raised in “Atlanta” Georgia- really a suburb just outside. Lived there all of my life until I moved to Los Angeles two years ago – still feels like yesterday- to further my acting career. I stumbled upon Ecclesia and found a home there! And now I am headed to India. Not exactly sure what is in store for us there but I rest in the comfort of God’s wisdom and His power! This is my first trip out of the country, my first passport and we leave on my birthday!! Yay for 27hour flight.
Kevin Miller
I've lived in Hollywood for five years and call it home. As graduate of San Jose State University I've had a website since the time when java only meant coffee. In preparation for our trip to India I'm learning Hindi. Or at least trying to. I have resisted going on a "mission trip" all my life. But then God wooed me and now I'm more excited to go to India than I am for Christmas.
Matthew Schulert
Born and raised in Grand Ledge, Michigan and went to school for photography in Rochester New York. I'm in LA working in the fashion photo industry, with hopes to continue shooting food and get back into performing again. God just really put India on my heart and I want to be able to make a difference in the lives of the oppressed. I can already see the changes in my life, and can't wait to see the changes in theirs.
Sara Sposito
I am soooo excited to be a part of this team! I have been living in Los Angeles for 5 years, attending Ecclesia for 1.5. I grad
uated from UCLA with an English degree in 2006 and have been working on the same feature length screenplay ever since. One of these days it will be done! Just you wait and see!! Other than writing, my life is filled with improv, working with the homeless (full time!) and spending time in community with my wonderful friends. Praise God for this opportunity.
Braden Spotts
My name is Braden and I grew up in Portland Oregon, went to college in Vancouver, BC, and have lived here in LA for 3 years now. I moved here for a retail job but have had the good fortune to stay here to work in the film and television industry. God has done some amazing things for me through Ecclesia in the last 3 years and I'm excited to have the chance to follow His calling to India.
