JAAZ AND KAITLIN TO MONGOLIA
Jaaz and Kaitlin cofer
Missionaries to Mongolia
Jaaz father was a pioneer missionary in Mongolia and has been there for over 20 years so Jaaz grew up in Mongolia. As teenager and young adult he understood his calling was to eventually go back home and lead in the ministry his father started.
He came to the states for college, met his wife Kaitlin and they now have to kids, Keziah and Ezra. For the last few years they have spent the summers running a Christian camp in Mongolia and the rest of the year worshiping with us here in Poe Mill.
Now, they are gearing up to go to Mongolia full time to make disciples and plant healthy churches.
Four Areas of Ministry
Jaaz and Kaitlin, under the leadership of Mongolian Missions, are focusing in on four areas of ministry.
Printing: Mongolian Missions runs a printing press so that the scriptures can be translated and sent out through the entire country.
Christian Camp: Each summer hundreds of kids and teenagers from all over Mongolia come to camp to have fun, make friends, and be discipled.
Leadership Conferences: Jaaz plans and hosts leadership conferences for the pastors of local churches in Mongolian villages.
Church Health: Ultimately the goal is to disciple men to plant and pastor healthy churches.

Spiritual Oversight
Griggs Church is honored to be the sending church of Jaaz and Kaitlin Cofer. What we mean by “sending church” is that they are members of our congregation, we whole heartedly ordained Jaaz for his gospel ministry in Mongolia and are confident in his calling and understanding of the gospel.

Financial Stewardship
Through January 2026 giving to the Cofer family is going through Griggs Church with help and oversight from our accounting firm, SPARA accounting. Since Jaaz and Kaitlyn are heading into a season where they will be in Mongolia all year round, they will soon transition all of their financial intake to a missions agency or clearing house. You will be notified well in advance for any changes you need to make to your recurring giving.
