Our Missionaries

Meet some of the missionaries with whom we partner to advance the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Rick and Debbie Bardin
NAB Missionaries, Cameroon
​

Rick is a board-certified medical doctor in Internal Medicine and Pathology. Debbie serves as a staff nurse and recently started doing outreach clinics to remote villages visiting patients who cannot travel to refill their HIV meds. Pray for the Bardins’ continued relationships with their patients, that many more will come to know Jesus through the ministry of the hospital. Thank God for the recent addition of a transcriber/typist to the pathology department, which frees Rick to work on more cases.

Bud and Lois
NAB Missionaries, East Asia
​

Bud and Lois are not new to the NAB family. In 1983, they answered the call to go to Cameroon where Bud served as the youth director of the Cameroon Baptist Convention. Because of family health issues, they returned to North America where Bud served as a p*stor at NAB ch*rches and on staff in various roles. They currently live in Utah where two of their sons live. The Father has prompted them to finish their full-time ministry calling by once again serving internationally. Their goal is to touch lives in East Asia through teaching conversational English to students of other languages. Pr*y for Bud and Lois as they seek ministry opportunities in Utah while continuing to raise funds so they can get to the field to serve alongside Nick and Iris. Pr*y for the progress of their book on parenting, that it might open doors for offering seminars and a new perspective to an Asian culture. Pr*y for the challenges they face in learning a new language. [*marks are intentional to protect NAB workers in restricted nations].

Brad & Madelyn Fox
Send Internation Missionaries, Allakaket, Alaska
​

Our family has been focusing on church planting in bush Alaska. We have two daughters, Ruth and Naomi, who join us in reaching our village with the truth that Christ is worthy. The Lord brought us to the bush village of Allakaket in 2014. Our desire and passion is to see that Christ's Name is made great in our village--we are praying to someday have a group of people in our village come together and worship the Lord as He deserves.

Both of us have been raised in Montana. Maddie is from Laurel, Montana, while Brad grew up in Ekalaka.

Paul & Tanya Gericke
NAB Missionaries, Romania
​

The Gerickes have been married since 2010 and felt a strong call to move in Romania in 2011. In 2012 they spent time in Romania with the Hungarian Baptist Convention of Romania (HBC) and the camp board.  It was decided at this time that they would work alongside the camp board and HBC in developing the camp property that was purchased in 2000. Together they envisioned a camp that would see effective evangelism, discipleship, youth leadership development, and recreation. They moved to Romania in 2014 and have loved serving alongside the Hungarian Camp Falcon Rock team. However before getting married they also had strong calls to missions in their lives leading them to this choice.

Nick & Iris Hung
NAB Missionaries, Japan
​

Although they are new to the mission field Nick & Iris Hung feels like their calling began a lifetime ago. In 2002-2003 they knew that God was calling them to overseas missions. They felt the desire to share the good news of God with other people.

They are serving in Japan to bring the good news to a nation with a long history of religion different from the God of the bible. This poses a unique opportunity that they are excited to tackle.

We also Support Multiple Organizations
Chain of Love

With the goal of taking in children and teenagers in situations of social vulnerability and transforming their lives, Chain of Love (known as Lar Colmeia in Brazil) was created. The organization has homes in the cities of Campo Bom and Novo Hamburgo, in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Southern Brazil.

The homes take in children and teenagers (between 0 and 18 years of age) sent by the judicial system (in a protective measurement) after all attempts to place them with their extended families have failed. The organization provides a familial living where the resident caregiver/housemother devotes her full time to looking after and protecting the children and teenagers taken into the homes. A resident housefather also invests significantly in the lives of the children and teenagers.

Amigos Internacionales

Founded in 1967, Amigos Internacionales, Inc. began with a vision to provide emergency services and disaster relief across the globe. Over the years, our mission has evolved, concentrating on impactful initiatives in Africa through our Missionpoint campaign.
 
Today, we dedicate ourselves to building communities by establishing churches, schools, and essential infrastructure like water wells, particularly in regions impacted by the South Sudan refugee crisis. Our commitment extends beyond immediate relief to fostering sustainable development, spiritual growth, and community resilience.
 
Driven by partnerships and volunteerism, we strive to create a lasting difference in the lives of the underprivileged, transforming their futures through faith, education, and practical support.
