BACKGROUND:
GENE . . . was born and raised in
Martinsburg, West Virginia where he met and
married his preacher's daughter, the former Alice
Ring. They have three children: Marc, Robin and
Jon (who is with the Lord), and four
grandchildren. Brother Gene was saved at the age
of nine, called to preach at the age of sixteen
and began preaching at age seventeen. By the time
he was nineteen and a sophomore in Bible College,
he pastored his first full-time church which he
served for four years. While there he and his wife
yielded their lives to missions. They served in
Mexico as missionaries until Gene contracted
chronic hepatitis which forced them to return to
the United States. During the next twelve years he
pastored two great churches. The heartbeat of
these churches was soulwinning and worldwide Faith
Promise Missions.
In December 1980, he was one of the founding board members
of Baptist Missions To Forgotten Peoples, Inc. In
May 1983, Dr. Burge resigned the pastorate and
became the full-time Executive Director of the
board and on June 12, 1997 he was elected
President of the organization.
Dr. Burge is
engaged in preaching Faith Promise Mission
Conferences around the world. He is being greatly
used for the Lord in leading the cause of missions
throughout the world. Because of his burden and
compassionate preaching, Christians are being
challenged to do their part in reaching the
forgotten of the world with the saving Gospel of
Jesus Christ. He and his wife Alice love
missionaries. Their heart beat is to encourage
missionaries as well as recruit new missionaries.
Independent Baptist missionaries around the world
call the Burges ''their friends.''
MESSAGE:
''The Lord is good, all the time!''
