About Kris

As a young boy, my father led me to personal faith in Jesus Christ. At the age of 13 I went to Word of Life Island for a week of summer camp. There I was challenged to seek and serve God with all my life. After high school I attended the Word of Life Bible Institute in NY and then in Argentina. During those years my eyes were truly opened to the needs of the world. Debbie and I were married in 1995, then left for France 4 years later to begin the Word of Life ministry in that needy country. God gave us 10 wonderful years of family and ministry there before calling us to return to the United States and work with our fields around the world.

About Debbie

I was born and raised in Argentina to wonderful missionary parents, Joe and Melva Jordan. My mother led me to faith in Christ as a child. When I was 9 years old, I sensed Gods call on my life to missions. After 10 years in France, God has called us to serve our missionaries all around the world. My specific role is Member Care Case Management, where I help meet the counseling needs of our missionaries either personally or through networking with other counselors. God has given us 4 precious children, Natalia, Micka, Luc, and Lyric.

"Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen." Ephesians 3:20-21
