Michael & Celeste Peters

Michael and Celeste have been married since 1992 and have each been engaged in missions activities long before meeting and marrying. Celeste was born on the mission field to missionary parents working in Cuba. Missions has been an integral part of their lives and the lives of their 3 children since the time they were all very young.

Michael received his law degree and established his law practice as a means of supporting his family, but always with the objective of creating opportunities for them to remain active in short-term missions activities.

Celeste’s passions lie in being a mom to their three daughters, as well as a Marriage and Family Therapist, earning her Master’s Degree and ministering in private practice for over 3 decades.

After more than a 15-year relationship with a Chiapas orphanage, they recognized the need to create a safe, nurturing, family environment for the girls who had outgrown the orphanage setting, but needed more time, training, and personalized mentoring before they were prepared to assume the responsibilities and challenges of independence and life on their own. This was the need that Reina’s Hope was created to fill.
