Mr. Sweazy is a former professional firefighter who has spent the past decade focused on discipleship and church planting. In 2014, he and his wife, Natasha, moved to East Africa to engage in international Kingdom expansion. While in Uganda, they planted a church in Kampala and established a Christian resource center near the city’s largest university. The center serves as a lighthouse for many to engage with scripture, utilizing Creation to New Creation, a biblical literacy curriculum Charlton developed.

A former Sattler College trustee, Charlton has recently transitioned into a staff role at Sattler, where he continues his commitment to Kingdom expansion through education and discipleship. He also remains actively involved with The Bridge English Training Center, which serves the immigrant community just outside Boston, MA.

Charlton and Natasha have five biological children and six adopted children from Uganda. As a family, they are passionate about the Kingdom of God and strive to see “His Kingdom come on earth” through loving obedience to Jesus and radical love for their neighbors.
