Godly Lives That Support The Truth
Our Directors
“I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and [a]the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.” Gal. 2:20
Dr. Joe Jordan
He came to know Christ as his personal Savior through the influence of Don Kelso, a Christian businessman from Lakeland, Florida. Don Kelso had a special interest in Joe and in 1961 sent him to the Island of Word of Life in Schroon Lake, New York. On the Island he heard the Gospel through Jack Wyrtzen, Founder of Word of Life Fellowship, where he was saved. He studied at Cairn University, formally Philadelphia Biblical University, and also at Tennessee Temple University where later he received his Doctor of Divinity Degree.
In 1969 he married Melva Little and they committed their lives to full time missionary service even before their wedding. They have three children, Gracia, Andrés, and Debora, and five grandchildren, Michael and Victoria Laymon, Natalia, Micka, and Luc Stout.
On January 4, 1971, Joe and Melva arrived to Argentina with a deep conviction of God’s call in their lives to His service to reach the youth of that country with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. They began to reach young people through various programs and activities, but especially through discipleship where they transmitted their love for God and His Word. Many of these young people were trained and became part of the ministry of Word of Life as missionaries, not only in Argentina but also worldwide. Through his ministry Word of Life Ministries were started in 28 different countries and over 800 missionaries were sent out to the fields of harvest.
Dr. Jordan served as Executive Director of Word of Life Fellowship from 1999 to 2011 and currently lives with his wife in Argentina; the country they love, where he is the Founding Director. He is author of 7 books, one of which is “Countdown to Armageddon, a Biblical Treatise of Future Events. His dynamic leadership was instrumental for numerous capital project upgrades to facilities, the growth of the ministry into 63 countries and the development of a new generation of leadership around the world. His example as director, teacher, husband, father and friend has influenced many, and his teaching continues to influence thousands of people around the world.
