Ezra and Ashlan Burns

Kandern, Germany

Our Story

Ezra and Ashlan met in college and have a heart for sharing how God has transformed their life story through His power. After serving the United States Navy Ezra grew his passion for carpentry, woodworking, and construction. Ashlan knew her calling was to become a nurse and later found her passion working with nursing students and became a nurse educator at her alma mater. God placed a strong desire in both Ezra and Ashlan to serve in Europe to reach the lost. Ezra has a passion for the German community and culture after learning the language and visiting. We have formally accepted positions at Black Forest Academy to join their mission to impact the students, staff, and locals in Europe and beyond. We are currently raising support to leave for BFA in August 2025!

Where We Work

Black Forest Academy is located in Kandern, Germany providing quality education and serving families who desire strong Christian education. BFA serves many student populations throughout North America, Europe, and Asia. The global impact of BFA is to help keep missionary families on the field while discipling their teen as they face the challenges of our world. Ezra has accepted a position to serve at BFA in the maintenance and facilities department and Ashlan will volunteer in the nursing office. Our family desires to create life long relationships that point others to Christ.
