Gene & Kriss Royer first began the ministry of hosting Pastoral couples in their Bed & Breakfast in MO. It soon became apparent that the need for Pastors to get away to rest was greater than they could host at their little B&B. They sold the B&B and started the 501c3 nonprofit, Revive Ministry with the hopes of finding a larger property and to provide this ministry full time.
Genes background is a Professional Photographer having worked for the government and then later the university of MO both as Photographer. He has an eye for beauty and serene places that call one to linger a while and rest.
Kriss has a background in education and counseling.
They have been married 45 years, and have 3 married adult children and 11 grandchildren.
