Mikki Schmidt

Teacher, HR Administrator, and Guidance Counselor

Mikki Schmidt has a passion for mentoring new teachers and missionaries, for equipping leaders to grow and thrive in ministry, and most of all, to see education make an impact for the gospel of Christ throughout Africa and the world. She grew up in an unchurched home and came to know Jesus as her Savior at Vacation Bible School when she was 12 years old. Mikki has spent 26 years in Niger with her family, 10 years planting a church among the nomadic Tuareg people and the rest of her time in the capital serving in administration and education. She and her husband also work with SIM to help train missions leaders from around the world.
