Spenser and Gabbie Clapp are the Founders and Directors of the Freedom House Discipleship School (FHDS). Married for two years, they relocated to Charleston in 2024 in obedience to the Lord’s leading, stepping into the work God is doing through Freedom House International both stateside and across the nations.

Longtime friends and leaders within the Africa Freedom Mission (AFM) family, Spenser and Gabbie have served in Africa multiple times over the past several years. Their journey in missions and discipleship has shaped a deep conviction to steward what God is building—raising up believers who are firmly rooted in Christ, captivated by His love, and equipped to walk out their calling in every sphere of influence.

Gabbie carries a strong passion for helping others encounter the love and presence of God and for teaching what it looks like to live daily in friendship with Jesus. Her heart is to walk deeply with people, seeing the broken restored to the Father, freed through the gospel, and grounded in their identity as sons and daughters of God.

Spenser’s greatest desire is to see Jesus receive His reward through a prepared Bride—the Church walking in purity, power, and devotion to her Bridegroom. He longs to see the body of Christ return to the simplicity and vibrancy of the early Church (Acts 2), centered on wholehearted discipleship and the preaching of the simple, powerful gospel.

Together, Spenser and Gabbie feel called to long-term stewardship within Freedom House International and FHDS. They invite you to prayerfully consider partnering with them as they seek to raise up disciples and be the hands and feet of Jesus, both locally and among the nations.
