Andrew and Dawn Tlucek

A third generation missionary on both sides of the family, Dawn knew she wanted to be a missionary since she was a young girl growing up in Haiti as a missionary kid. She joined the RMI team in April 2018. Dawn helped teams coordinate their trips to Haiti to visit their C3 partner churches, helped host the teams at the Zanglais Ministry Center, and accompany teams to their Sister Churches.

Andrew spent his early years growing up on his family’s farm in Idaho. His parents went to Port-au-Prince, Haiti in 2006 as missionaries and he spent his high school years there. He felt God calling him to become a missionary who enabled others to be disciple makers through education. He spent his college years getting equipped where he received his MBA and PhD in Higher Education administration.

How God brought Andrew and Dawn together is a Hallmark-worthy story. They were married in 2021 and it has been an adventure ever since with the addition of their three sons named Layton, Owen, and Everett. Dawn and Andrew served in Haiti until 2025 and are now transitioning to minister in the Dominican Republic where they will be co-founding the Ezra Institute – School of Leadership.
