Bill & Linda Rillo
Global
We are Bill and Linda Rillo from Cincinnati Ohio. In January 2021 we returned from 3-1/2 years in Zambia, Africa, working with Central Africa Baptist University. I (Bill) did a teaching ministry in Zambia at the university, and also in various remote locations as coordinator of our Theological Studies by Extension (TSE) program. Linda had a ladies Bible study, and also mentored some of the female college students. I led a local bible study each Sunday morning in Chingola, about an hour from where we lived. It is such a blessing to see these local pastors hunger for sound biblical training, and to see their appreciation for the biblical theology lessons that we shared with them.
Now that we have returned to the States, we are still working in a mission capacity with IBM Global mission agency. Bill has accepted the position of Safety & Security Advisor and will be working full time to create security policies, plans, risk assessments, and contingency planning for IBMG, and will also be involved in preparing our missionaries to live overseas while being proactive in their own safety and security measures. Our goal is to allow staff to minister for the Lord effectively, by minimizing potential risks and dangers that they may face overseas.
