core directors
Stacie Bostic, Ministry Director
Small-town girly girl who thought she had it all together. Then Jesus opened her eyes. Stacie has been married since 1997 to Todd and has a son named Logan. Stacie is a Business Consultant by day which helps pay the bills, but Stacie's true calling is pouring into the lives of other women through Jesus. Stacie has been schooled by the Spirit of God and attended Criswell and completed her studies at The College of Biblical Studies in Houston, where she earned her BS in Christian Ministry and Leadership with a minor in Biblical Studies. Todd & Stacie are members and serve at Liberty Church.
Stacie is committed to bringing teaching and testimonies that demonstrate the power of God and encourages others to surrender to God's purpose and experience the joy of allowing Him to manifest in their lives. The Lord has paved an exciting path for Stacie to touch hearts and minds with her testimony that focuses on the art of surrender, walking by faith, and rising above your circumstances. Stacie's message is firmly grounded in the Word of God.
She loves to engage the hearts and souls of women of all ages by sharing her story and her passion for Jesus. Because she feels so strongly about praise, worship, and the power of God's word, she founded Girl Power in 2009 in Gun Barrel City, Texas to connect "girls of all ages" to God's word and fellowship. The ministry has evolved and is now Mission313 and encompass the entire family closer to God. Stacie's desire, ultimate and consuming, is to remain Kingdom-focused and to live a transformed life, so that she might "prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God." (Romans 12:2)
She will tell you her resume, bio, motto, and epithet: Stacie loves Jesus. Lots. She also likes things that shine, is a planner, list-maker, and just a bit crazy about her fur babies Lucy Lou and Binkee Boo. Her most favorite role started in February 2023 when she became GOGO to her grandson, Beckett.
Marsha Cyzmer, InReach Director

Tonya Smith, Promotional Director
† Tonya is a Lymphoma cancer survivor and gives all the glory to The Lord. †
Tonya married her high school sweetheart, Danny, in 1999. Together, they have two sons: Hunter, a proud Marine veteran who has traveled the world and spent several years driving an 18-wheeler; and Kj, a homeschooled gamer with a passion for all things tech. Her guys — husband included — definitely keep her on her toes!
Their home is filled with furry friends: three dogs (Cyber, Rocky, and Rufus) and two cats (Nermal and Tipsy). Most of them are rescues, except for Cyber, who was hand-picked by Kj, and Rufus, the newest addition to their clan.
Tonya gave her life to Christ as a child and grew up in church, but it wasn’t until she rededicated her life to Jesus in 2000 that she truly began to understand what it meant to serve the Lord. A stay-at-home mom, content creator, and entrepreneur, Tonya is always dreaming up her next venture — you never know what business idea she’ll dive into next!
She has faithfully served at Liberty Baptist Church in GBC since 2001, has been on the GPM/MISSION313 Core Team since the beginning, where she currently serves as Promotional Director. Her favorite scripture is Hebrews 11:1 — “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”
A cheetah print enthusiast and Tex-Mex lover, Tonya brings the party with her wherever she goes. She has a heart for helping others and could listen to Crowder on repeat all day long. Tonya and Danny are working toward their dream of selling their home and building an off-grid oasis in the country. She considers it a true honor and privilege to serve Jesus every day.
Fun Fact: Her mom’s last name was Thorn, and her dad’s is Rose — proof that every rose really does have its thorn!
Sheryl Stephens, Outreach Director
Sheryl is married to Donnie Stephens (one of the "CREW" members) and together they have 5 kiddos (Kizik, Quentin, Kylee, Railey & Kacey). She and Donnie are GoMaw & GoPaw to many Grandbabies that have blessed them to no end! Sheryl has been with GPM/Mission313 since the beginning in 2009 and has served as a Core Member for many of those years. She is now our Outreach Director. Her love for getting out into the community to share info about our Mission and spreading the name of Jesus is her main way to SHINE.
As small business owners for their moving company In & Out No Doubt LLC, her and her husband know how difficult life can be juggling family, friends, ministry and work. This is why her favorite scripture is Philippians 4:13 "For I can do everything through Christ that gives me strength"
Because of her testimony of overcoming addiction, Donnie and Sheryl are leading an addiction program called "re:generation" at their home church, Liberty Baptist in Gun Barrel City. The symbolism in the bible of the Potter and the CLAY has definitely defined how Jesus has worked in her life. Lastly, she believes that laughter is the best therapy (of course besides Jesus), so get ready for "therapy" when she's around!
