Meet Ed & Linda Baker

We are two of the most honored people in God's creation - we are able to travel to exciting new places, meet new people and share God's word.  After several years of going on short-term mission trips to Honduras and the Dominican Republic, God called us to go "full time".  In 1999 we quit our "regular" jobs and applied to become missionaries under the care and guidance of the The Mission Society.  Our 10 years serving as missionaries in Paraguay and Nicaragua taught us that living incarnationally means becoming involved in the issues facing those that we serve – water and sanitation, agriculture, health, education, and many social issues.  People are more open to receive the gospel from those of us who recognize these issues of daily life and help with their solution.  To continue with this service, we have now joined The Global Resource Team as Co-Directors.  Many missionaries and those helping with indigenous groups see problems but don’t have the skills or tools to help solve them.  The Global Resource Team can mobilize specialists to assist in many of these areas, some of whom have served as missionaries themselves.  We will continue as the team leaders of the Water & Sanitation Team, helping with our developed skills.

What is our ministry?

Ed is a Civil Engineer and worked for 25 years in the field of water resources and sanitation.  Linda, after raising our two wonderful daughters (Rhian and Kara) finished her degree in Management and worked as a computer consultant, with a special love for training adults.  God has gifted us with these skills and experiences so that we can work in developing areas in the fields of water, sanitation and hygiene.  Our ministry includes drilling water wells in remote villages, water development and treatment projects, and sanitation/hygiene training programs as well as computer training and assistance.  We also serve as the Co-Directors of The Global Resource Team, a group of specialists dedicated to assisting missionaries & indigenous groups world wide.

We are in need of funds to support our water ministry.  Please click here to learn how you can sponsor a water project.

Please pray for us and our ministry.  With your prayers and the grace of God we will stay in His will and accomplish His goals!
