IBAC Leadership

IBAC IS a collaboration –

We love working in partnership with our sponsor churches, the institute site hosts, our country logistics coordinators, and the latino pastor teacher team. All have a part in making this ministry happen.

Our IBAC leadership team are frequently involved in the events, but we’re also constantly working behind the scenes to see that the proper pieces are in place for ministry advancement: spiritually, theologically, financially, and logistically. Get to know a bit about us below.
