ABWE missionaries to the Amazon · since 1980
Allen & Kim Yoder
Forty+ years of ministry on the Amazon.
Who we are
Forty+ years on the Amazon.
Kim grew up in the Amazon jungle, the daughter of a pioneer missionary pilot couple. Allen spent twelve childhood years in Guatemala as a missionary’s child. Two kids on two continents, each being prepared for the same calling without knowing it.
They joined ABWE in 1980 and left for the field about a year and a half later. What followed was forty+ years in the air and on the water: aviation ministry, a floating home, youth and church work, and biblical counseling. This is their story, and it is really about God.
