Dorren & Rebecca Rodriguez

Furnace Ministries Levant inspires positive change in the Levant region by combining spirituality with behavioral science. We believe Jesus has big dreams that can make the world a better place. Dorren and Rebecca want to inspire others to believe in those dreams and work together to make them come true. One day, they hope to leave behind independent Arab communities who feel amazing and follow Jesus in ways that uniquely allow them to shine as all the Lord has intended them to be.

About

John and Cecille have been involved in different types of ministry their whole marriage. Whether it be ministry to the less fortunate in the Philippines, or Chicago (where they raised their children). Teaching pastors in countries closed to the gospel, or interns at a local house of prayer the Sr. Bailey family has 30+ years of ministry experience under their belt. Through it all they maintain a fire in their heart to share the love of Christ with all they come in contact with.

Johnnie and Bethany both grew up in missions minded households. They got married young and felt strongly that Jesus was inviting them to do ministry among people groups unreached by the gospel. Through prayer and discernment they settled on Japan and have been tent-maker missionaries since. Deeply embedded in their local community (many of which never met a Christian) the younger Baileys thrive at showing and sharing the love of Jesus to any who would take time to listen.

Dorren and Rebecca are no strangers to serving Jesus. They met in Kansas City, then moved to Chicago to minister alongside migrant communities near and around Devon Ave. While there, they worked with a diverse group of families, including Arab refugees, all while Dorren was serving as an associate pastor at a local church. They are passionate about sharing the love of Jesus with whomever they interact with.

Colyn grew up making music in church. A dedicated songwriter and worship-leader, she loves ministering before the Lord in worship and prayer. She has a passion for serving youth, music, and Jesus.

Chihori comes from a Japanese home that didn’t know Jesus. She met the Lord in university and it changed the course of her life. Now, she is experiencing true life, joy and peace, and has a deep passion to share the love and life of Jesus with her people through her art, relational ministry, and leading Bible studies.
