The Graham family is currently in South Africa building a children's village for AIDS-affected orphans. Their purpose is to help, reach and disciple these children for Jesus Christ by providing these kids caregivers, church, school and other community-based organizations.
The Grahams are from Jacksonville, Florida. Their sending church is University Baptist. Joanna and Bob have been married for 24 years and have three children: Jessica, Julie and Jordan. Jordan is the only one currently in South Africa.
Before starting this ministry, Bob was an assistant pastor at University Baptist and a college professor at Jacksonville University. He earned his Ph.D. from the University of North Florida. He also earned his undergraduate degree from Trinity Baptist College in Jacksonville.
