Mary Kleine Yehling joined Tyndale House Foundation in 1975. As V.P., Executive Director she has had the opportunity and joy to learn about and work with many individuals, organizations, missions and churches with a heart for ministry around the world. She remarks, “We really are a part of “so great a cloud of witnesses” not only those gone on before, but those still with us.” She has served her community over the years as a volunteer and leader in area organizations, choirs, schools, and in her church. Tyndale House Foundation celebrates over 53 years of “Investing in the Kingdom”. “We do not know what the future holds, but by God’s grace we look forward to many more years in ministry and pray we can continue to ‘encourage each other and build each other up’.”
1 Thessalonians 5:11

ALS Role

When Tyndale House Foundation initiated the Africa Leadership Study it was the beginning of a unique learning experience for us all. It has been Mary Kleine’s great privilege and joy to serve in an administrative capacity, overseeing and coordinating the day to day activities and support of all facets of the team’s work. May our efforts be used by God, through the ALS website and the book “Patterns in African Christian Leadership”, to continue to build on the network of people and organizations the Study has woven together. May it serve as a helpful tool for those in Africa and those in the West to better understand how to more effectively develop and equip strong servant leaders in all areas of African society.
