Heidi Baker

Heidi Gayle Baker (1959–present). Born on August 29, 1959, in Laguna Beach, California, to James and Glenetta Farrell, Heidi Baker is a Christian missionary, author, and co-founder of Iris Global. Raised in a non-religious family, she converted at 16 in 1976 while volunteering on a Choctaw reservation, moved by a Navajo preacher’s message. She earned a BA and MA from Vanguard University and a PhD in systematic theology from King’s College London (1995). Meeting Rolland Baker in 1979, they married in 1980 and founded Iris Global, focusing on evangelism and aid. In 1995, they moved to Mozambique, taking over a dilapidated orphanage in Chihango, growing it to serve thousands of children. Baker’s preaching, marked by charismatic fervor, reports miracles and revival, influencing global Pentecostalism. She authored books like There Is Always Enough (2003) and Birthing the Miraculous (2014). With Rolland, she has two children, Crystalyn and Elisha. Baker said, “Love looks like something; it stops for the one in need.”
