John and Diana Nally

John is retired from a career in the food Industry and with a non-medical health care company. Diana is a retired “stay at home” mom.

In 1999 a friend in their area initiated a prayer group to start a Community Bible Study class. That prayer group developed into a class within one year. Diana was called to serve as ATD of that class for seven years and was an Area Director for 9 years. John has been in a Community Bible Study men’s Core Group since 2011, and a supporter of Community Bible Study ministry since 2000.

Diana did not grow up in a churched home, but believed there was a God. “My father’s death,” she says, “caused me to question ‘Is there more to this life than what I see?’ God provided a Christian neighbor who loved me through my search and shared the truth of God’s Word. That truth brought me to the point of acknowledging my need of forgiveness of sin and the acceptance of Jesus as my Savior.” John grew up attending church where the truth of God’s Word was not taught. He says, “As an adult I heard the truth of the gospel, that my sin separated me from God and that His plan for my salvation was through the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ. The journey of accepting Jesus as my Savior was guided by God’s love for me through the encouragement of my wife and daughter, attending a Bible-teaching church and becoming involved in a Bible Study. I praise God for His love, mercy, grace and patience—and for the gift of salvation through His Son.”

After visiting Burundi, Africa, in 2008, God gave them a love and passion for the country and people. During the summer of 2012, God made it clear He was calling them into the Ambassadors ministry through a series of events and teachings from Christian Leaders. Their favorite quote of last summer is, “If you are not dead, you are not done!” They now serve as a part of the Burundi team with Ambassador Marcia Craig.
