David Hurtado & Veronika Faleeva

Administration

We are a young married couple serving at TGC Bible School, primarily involved in student management and organizational duties. Our role allows us to work closely with the students, overseeing their development and ensuring they thrive during their time at the school.

We both received a calling from God to be part of this ministry and feel truly blessed to serve as members of the staff team. We have witnessed how God is working in and through us, and our desire is to help guide the next generation of youth to live according to His Word and deepen their understanding of the Scriptures.

Raised in Christian families, we both pursued higher education. David completed his Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and Management in Tennessee, USA, while Veronika earned her Bachelor’s degree in Linguistics in St. Petersburg, Russia.

My name is Juan Luis Vadillo Romero, I am 53 years old, and I have been married to my wife, Marcela Elizabeth, for 26 years. God has also blessed us with our daughter Ruth.

I converted to Christ at the age of 20, and since then, I have served God as a missionary and pastor at the Reto a la Esperanza Biblical Church. We have served the Lord in different countries, including Argentina, Portugal, and Panama. I have studied through correspondence at various Bible schools for several years in the U.S., Mexico, Switzerland, Santander, and Barcelona.

We had the vision to open a Bible school in Cartagena (Spain), where we worked for several years. In this place, God also allowed us to start the radio chanel Luz a las Naciones, where I have been collaborating for over 12 years, expositively teaching books of the Bible.

I have also been a professor at the Theological Biblical Seminary (SEBITE), teaching the subject of Theology Proper in the Canary Islands.

Currently, we have been serving Christ in the Canary Islands for 8 years as pastors at the Reto a la Esperanza Biblical Church.

Leander Janse

Leander Janse

Teacher

My name is Leander Janse. The most important thing to say about me is that I am a beloved child of God, justified by Jesus’ sacrifice and that nothing can separate me from the love of Christ. I would also like to share that I am graciously married to Joanne, a loving, courageous woman with whom I can serve the Lord together. We have four sons, all of whom still live at home with us.

Growing up in a Christian family, I decided to distance myself from the Christian faith as a teenager. At the age of 20, while I was in college, God troubled me, convinced me from sin and the emptiness of my live and gave me a hunger to read the Bible. During that period I was converted quite abruptly and God’s love for a lost sinner filled my heart. The discovery that Jesus’ sacrifice was enough for me and freed me from sin filled my heart with joy.

During that period I worked as a teacher at a secondary school. God directed it so that I could attend Bible college. Soon after, we became involved in church work, evangelism and discipleship. In 2016, God called us to full-time ministry at a Gospel Mission Bible School (www.hebronmissie.nl). We lived there for seven years and worked in educating and training young people. In 2023 we heard God’s call to also serve a church. I currently serve as an elder in a Baptist church and I also work for the Bible school.  My main responsibilities are teaching and discipling Christians and young leaders.

It’s quite humbling, until today, to see the Lord working in and through me. Praise His Name!



Gert-Joop Dolk

Gert-Joop Dolk

Teacher

Born and raised in South Africa. Debbie, my wife, completed a degree in physiotherapy and Gert-Joop a four-year study at ‘Baptist Theological Seminary’. From 1982, they have been involved full-time as elders/pastors in various congregations.
In obedience to the Great Commission and because we experienced it as a calling from God, we came to the Netherlands in 1994 (with our two children of 12 and 10).
From our living room in the town of Voorthuizen a church was started which we pastored/led up to 2008. From 2009-2022, we led the eldership team of a church in Hardenberg.
Since 2016 Gert-Joop has been involved in the Gospel Mission Bible school. From September 2023 to July 2024 both of us have served on a semi-fulltime basis as mentor to the students and Gert-Joop did a fair bit of teaching.
As part of Jesus’ Great Commission and as people who have been following the Lord and serving in His kingdom for some time now, we see it as a privilege to invest in the lives of the next generation.

Teacher

I am 48 years old and from Croatia. I am a husband and father of three children.
I converted at the age of 21, and since then I have served the Lord in the Biblical Church “Reto a la Esperanza!” In my Christian life, I have served in various countries in the mission field of my church. I served for 12 years in northern Spain (Santander) before getting married. Two years after getting married, I returned to my country (Croatia) with my wife, who is also Croatian. We lived in Zagreb (the capital of Croatia) for 4 years, actively involved in the mission of helping those in need and growing in the knowledge of our Lord. We thought we would stay in our country because we could see God’s fruit in our ministry, but God wanted to surprise us (as He often has) and took us to northern Italy (Milan). We have been here in Italy for 12 years, pastoring a church along with other brothers.
