Rich Hodge, Missionary to HIV/AIDS Orphans in South Africa

Rich Hodge has a unique way of bringing the Word of God alive by exposing our hearts to the true heart of God. A husband of 30 years to his wife Lynn and the father of six children, Rich blends real life stories with gentle humor to expose people to the surprising and amazing grace of Jesus. God’s comforting grace has come at great expense to Rich and his family. Born into a hostile family in San Francisco California Rich knew the pain of loss at an early age. Both parents were alcoholics and his dad left when he was very young. Mom continued to drink and they moved often during his years of growing up. At 16, Rich moved from his home to stay with some friends and it was there that he first heard about the gift of life through Jesus Christ. He received Christ as his personal Savior the summer of his junior year of high school and his life radically changed. Rich knew he was called into the ministry and he pursued a BA degree in Biblical Studies from Simpson University. For many years the lord has opened the door for Rich in various churches, conferences, and gatherings but the one organization he loved ministering too the most was YWAM. After 15 years of speaking in various schools for YWAM Rich and his wife Lynn did there own DTS in New Haven, CT in 2004. While in New Haven the Hodge’s met up with several young people who had a heart for S Africa and the HIV/AIDS crises. In 2008 they relocated to S Africa to help these young leaders launch a new base. A pastor at heart Rich loves the church and currently has a ministry with a mission purposed to restore, renew, and replant God’s intended inheritance for all people and all Nations. (Isaiah 49:8-9, 61:1-7) With a sensitivity and respect for the church, Rich will teach and share, as one who understands the high calling and responsibility of exhorting the church to greatness in Christ.
