Rolland and Heidi Baker are the founding directors of Iris Ministries, which began in 1980. They arrived in Mozambique in 1995, after ministering for twelve years in Asia and three years in the UK. They began to pour out their lives and hearts among the street children in Mozambique. Amazing miracles began to take place along with great resistance and adverse weather conditions. Iris now oversees fifteen bases and has planted thousands of churches, mostly on the African continent.
The Lord has graced this work by pouring out His healing and miraculous power in village after village. The deaf hear, the blind see and the poor hear the good news. Iris Ministries includes five bible colleges, medical clinics, bush outreaches, church based orphan care, children's villages, primary schools, cottage industries, widow's programs, well drilling projects, missionary training schools, village feeding programs, houses for the disabled and more.
To God be all the glory! What great things He has done! We count it an incredible privilege to be alive at such a time as this Heidi earned her BA and MA degrees at Vanguard University and her PhD in systematic theology from King's College London. She has co-authored three books: There is Always Enough; The Hungry Always Get Fed and Compelled by Love.
One-third of her life, Heidi travels around the world as a conference speaker. Her passion is calling people into a radical place of intimacy with the Lord Jesus and on to their destinies in Him. She's calling for a passionate tribe of holy given, laid down lovers to give their lives away for love's sake and to bring the lost children of all ages and nations home to the Father's house.
