Pray for Angela Brandle,
Executive Director,
BLF USA
|
New Executive Director for BLF USA
God has brought together the desires of the U.S. Board’s heart with those of Angela Brandle’s heart
to surprise us all with a “match made in Heaven.” Following our Father’s clear guidance of all parties
involved, Angela Brandle (pronounced "Brandley"), will take
up her responsibilities as Executive Director of BLF USA on May 15th 2021.

After majoring in French with German at Manchester University in England, Angela sought to make her
literary studies practical with a graduate course in translation, interpretation, and business
administration. She met her husband Willy in France (and
were married in 1988), where they set up a legally constituted
mission board. She created, edited and wrote for Africa Evangelical Fellowship’s
(AEF) magazine in French and
served on the Editorial Committee of the Federation of Evangelicals of France which produced a magazine
covering ethical, theological, social and church-related issues of interest to French Christians and
pastors.

Coming to us with four decades of cross-cultural missions experience, mostly in leadership roles,
Angela brings her passion for the French language, the francophone world, and reaching and resourcing
least-served regions and groups through the written French word.
From 1996-2008, Angela and Willy served in the U.S.A., first as Ministries Directors, and following
AEF’s merger with SIM in 1998, as Directors for the Midwest. During this time, Angela developed a
ministry of public speaking, teaching and training, discipleship-based mobilization of Christians
and churches for God’s global mission, and provided pastoral care to missionaries. She continued to
challenge Christians to consider the French-speaking world and identified new workers to serve there.
From 2008 to 2014, Angela was called to direct and develop a team of missionaries to and from the
Province of Quebec, Canada. She is editor of Allons-y!, a mobilization magazine for francophone
Africa, and led the SIM International French Media Group to produce and distribute spiritual resources
in French and facilitate access to ministry for French-speakers.
That role often takes her to West
African countries where she interprets at conferences for budding African writers offered by
Magazine Training International.
Angela is excited to join the BLF family as she prayerfully pursues BLF’s vision into the next
chapter of ministry. Please lift up Angela in prayer as
she begins to further
BLF USA’s strong foundation and heritage of partnering with people and organizations that
will advance God’s Kingdom in the francophone world.
- Please pray for Nathan Phillips on the missions field in France. Nathan
is recovering from a deviated septum surgery Monday to improve breathing. Please also pray
for Annie and their two boys while Nathan recovers.
