Our Founders

Pastor Todd Lugli has a vision to connect the local church to the global church. He began by taking the Gospel to the nations including India followed by an extended stay in Colombia, South America with his family during the mid 90’s. His growing desire to minister to the “whole man”-– body, soul and spirit, led him to found Happy Kids International (HKI) in 2009. Since founding Happy Kids, he has established a ministry center in Fond Douze, Haiti and weekly kids club in Cudinamarca, Colombia.

Gena serves and supports Happy Kids, wholeheartedly. A talented minister in song, she leads worship and serves as a mentor to other musicians throughout the world. She also loves to minister to youth and women, encouraging them to break through their own limitations.

Todd and Gena have four grown kids and five granddaughters, all of which serve Happy Kids a family ministry. They are blessed by the many domestic and international volunteers who continually give up their time and resources to make this ministry work.
