Who we are
One family
One calling
Martin & Dagmar Körber — missionaries in Manila, Philippines since 2019. Five of us now.
Martin
Media, AI & Mission
Martin works at AP Media (Asia Pacific Media) — the media arm of the Assemblies of God in Southeast Asia. His goal: reaching people with the Gospel of Jesus Christ — through modern media and AI technology. He leads AI trainings in the Philippines and Southeast Asia, equipping local Christians to use Artificial Intelligence for spreading the Gospel.
At AP Media he leads and supports trainings, webinars and Film Creator Challenges, where participants produce short films with the message of Jesus Christ after a training, and oversees IT and web projects. For VM-International he develops technical tools for the IKM Missions network and leads PR work.

Dagmar
Family, Women & Faith
Dagmar carries the foundation of family life in Missions: she homeschools the children — a demanding task that enables our family to follow God's call to the Philippines and serve there long-term.
In addition, Dagmar is involved with YouShine — a programme that makes God's love tangible to women and children in difficult life situations and offers practical help.

And then there are...
Our Kids
Our three children are growing up here in the Philippines and have lots of contact with other children — Filipino, international and missionary kids. They bring us joy, fun and quite a lot of life every single day.
Our home
Our Everyday Life in Manila
Quezon City, part of the Metro Manila region, has been our home since 2019. God called us here — to a city full of life, encounters and opportunities to share the Gospel.
We belong to the Federation of Free Pentecostal Churches (BFP) in Germany. VM-International is the BFP's mission organization and our sending agency. In the Philippines we work with the Assemblies of God and their media arm AP Media. In addition, Dagmar works together with YouShine.
As missionaries we depend on support from Germany — financially and in prayer. Together we make it possible for people in Southeast Asia to come to know Jesus Christ.
