Loves hunting with the Bayaka pygmy people… ask him for stories.
Jim founded this organization at the age of 50 after his years of work in Africa. Before Water for Good, he started numerous ministries for a Grace Brethren Mission organization, including founding schools and a building a maintenance garage. His mechanical skills reflect his general gift for figuring out a way to get things done when the normal way is not possible… a critical skill for founding a non-profit in one of the poorest and most remote countries in the world! He believes that relationships are of utmost importance and Jim has worked hard to mentor both staff in both the USA and CAR who will be able to take this organization to the next level. He holds a Bachelor of Arts from Grace College and an MDiv from Grace Seminary, where he developed the leadership skills that have served him well!
