The Hamlet Family:
Ingrid and Roger Hamlet joined BMS World Mission as specialists in orthotics and prosthetics. On completion of their missions and language training, they will serve at Guinebor II hospital in N’Djamena, Chad, where they will set up a Prosthetics and Orthotics Department in 2025.
They met at university, where they both studied prosthetics and orthotics. They felt God’s call to mission work before they married. As a teenager, Roger wanted to use his education to serve in mission work and Ingrid chose her degree so she could be useful in a developing world context.
Roger enjoys rock climbing and river kayaking. Ingrid loves drawing and painting. In recent years, they have spent a lot of time at the playground with their two children, Mark and Joel!

The Vokuhl Family:
The Vokuhl family have been serving God in Nepal since January 2018. They felt called as a family to bring their skills and personalities into a development and resilience building context in Nepal. They want to share God's love through life and work. Our church started a BMS church partnership with the Vokuhls in March 2021. The Vokuhls journey with BMS finished in summer 2024. They are now partnering with another UK agency to meet the significant needs in Nepal - helping to construct safe-houses, a school and a vocational training centre for survivors of human trafficking.
