About George
Dr. George A. Damoff has been a professor of biology, environmental science and ecology, and a laboratory instructor of soil science in public and private institutions of higher education since 1987. Currently, he is an adjunct graduate faculty member in the Division of Environmental Science at Stephen F. Austin State University, Nacogdoches, Texas. His research on earthworms has been conducted in Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Kansas, and Colorado.
| A “lifelong, avid gardener,” George has expertise in earthworm identification and is interested in both pure and applied science related to earthworm ecology. In the past year he has been involved in a variety of research projects related to earthworms and soil. These include: the identification of earthworm species for a prairie restoration project in north-central Kansas, and a collaborative project examining environmental trace contaminants in earthworm tissue at Hornsby Bend Biosolids Management Plant in Austin, TX, with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, USDA, USGS and the City of Austin. |
He has co-authored several journal articles on earthworm species and the soils in which they are found. George has recently presented a workshops on vermicomposting and composting for the Texas Master Gardeners program and has helped launch the Marshall Community Garden.
Since completing his Ph.D. in Forestry in Dec. 2008, George has sought to use his expertise to advance God’s Kingdom. He was invited by WorldVenture missionaries to work with farmers and natural resource managers in north Côte d'Ivoire in June of that year. During his month-long visit there, he worked with farmers, co-ops, and natural resources managers planting crops and sharing his gardening knowledge. Journey Corps “greatly interests” him for this reason!
Profile Information
- Why are you interest in Journey Corps?
- The opportunity to multiple my knowledge and experience in working with soil through the lives of many Journeyers to bless the Ivorian people in Jesus' grace-filled Name.
- Your Heart For Missions
- "And the master said to the servant, ‘Go out to the highways and hedges and compel people to come in, that my house may be filled." Luke 14:23
- How Would You Rate Your interest in Missions? 1 being little interest 10 being life calling
- Visited Torhogo, Côte d'Ivoire, in 2008 while my son, Luke, was there with WorldVenture. Had the opportunity to work with many Ivorian gardeners, farmers, and women's co-ops. Seldom has there been a more palpable sense of God's pleasure in my feeble efforts to serve others.
- How Did You Find Us

Very good. The Lord is our Shepherd. Where He leads, let us follow! He knows if and when we may have an opportunity to visit again.
I will tell Jeanne (my wife) and Jacob that you send your greetings.
We are still greatly rejoicing…

Nema!
Thank you for the invitation.
I regret that we are not in communication more. Recently Angelika sent me an email. Every time I receive communication from people in Cote d'Ivoire I realize how much God has placed people involved in…

Other than what is posted on the JC website concerning the Ag track, what else are you anticipating me making a contribution toward advancing the program.
I, too, look forward to our time together.
George
Praying that the Lord will accomplish much through our trip to Cote d'Ivoire in late June.
