### **Family Bio:** *(as of spring 2016)*

The Bowers Family has been operating home-based businesses for over 25 years. From screen-printing, vending machines and fondue restaurants to real estate development, pastured poultry, alfalfa farming, and a Christian bookstore, they have loved the blessings of working together. In 2007 Curtis was appointed by the Governor to the Idaho Legislature, and in 2010, the Bowers produced the film *Agenda: Grinding America Down*, which won the "Jubilee Award" ($101,000,00) at the SAICFF. They have since traveled to over 45 states and Europe, singing and speaking to promote it. Curtis and his wife of 28 years, Lauren, have been blessed with 9 wonderful children (ages 6-22). They are currently touring full time with their new (2016) film *Agenda 2: Masters of Deceit*, which recently won “Best Documentary” at the CWVFF. The Bowers family continues to operate the independent film and distribution company Copybook Heading Productions.

### **Missionary Work**

In July 2017, 6 members of the Bowers family went on a twelve-day mission trip to Germany, Hungary, and Romania where they hosted a youth camp for young adults.

While in Romania, much of their free time was spent repairing clay roofs from extreme hail damage that fell just 12 hours before they entered the country.

In 2014,the three oldest Bower children (Carolina, Cassidy, and Charlie) after hearing about "The Great Commission Course" in Cape Town, South Africa, ventured to the destination to do things like, "smuggling Bibles through a military helicopter base with African guards searching earnestly for you with flashlights and AR-15s, at 2:30 am", to "preaching the gospel to passing lost souls on the village streets."

This is how one of the daughters described the collection of pictures they posted on social media: "A potpourri of posts on preparation and a cornucopia of cliffhanging chronicles as we trek to and traverse through Cape Town, South Africa."
