Our Team

Bold Ventures is an international organization registered as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in the United States and a non-governmental organization (NGO) in Uganda, with partner organizations in many other countries where we work. Our leaders come from different churches and ministries, all striving together to train more missionaries, start more churches, and bring more leaders together to reach the world.

International Director

Brent & Virginia founded Bold Ventures after a decade of disciple making in East Africa. Love for Jesus, for His Church, and for those beyond the reach of existing ministries were all key factors in establishing a new missionary agency. Brent directs the organization from his hometown of Bend, Oregon, traveling to participate in the work throughout the year.

Regional Leaders: Island Leadership Network

Lake Victoria is the second largest lake in the world. It covers an area the size of Ohio, with its population residing on many of the 3,000 small islands that rim its shores. Our regional leaders are lead pastors of local churches located within a smaller grouping of these islands. Each leader is facilitated to organize regular gatherings and care for the other pastors within their region.
