Arlen and Abigail Bradeen have devoted their lives to proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ and walking alongside people as they discover the freedom, healing, and hope found in Him.

Arlen has faithfully served as a pastor and missionary for more than 40 years. Born and raised in Inchelium, Washington, his heart has always remained connected to the people and community that shaped him. Shortly after graduating from high school, he enlisted in the U.S. Army. While stationed in Germany at the age of 19, Arlen encountered Jesus Christ in a life-changing way, surrendering his life to Him. That moment became the foundation of a lifelong calling to ministry. Following his military service, he completed Bible college through New Testament Christian Church and has spent decades faithfully preaching the Gospel, discipling believers, and serving wherever God has called him.

Abigail’s journey to Christ also began during her military service. A retired U.S. Army veteran, she served as a combat medic during deployments to Iraq before continuing her medical career as a labor and delivery nurse. After eight years of military service, she was medically retired in 2009. Born and raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Abigail has always carried a deep love for music, writing, and encouraging others. Through her own experiences of hardship, trauma, and God’s redeeming grace, she has developed a passion for helping people find lasting healing through an authentic relationship with Jesus Christ.

Although they were living on the coast of Georgia, a visit to Inchelium stirred something deep within their hearts. They left with an overwhelming burden for the people of the community and could not shake the conviction that God was calling them back. While they prayed and sought the Lord’s direction, Arlen’s younger brother, Van, had already begun reaching the community through worship nights and local ministry.

In time, God made His direction unmistakably clear. Trusting His leading, Arlen and Abigail left Georgia and returned to Inchelium to answer that call.

Today, they serve together with one purpose: to make Jesus known. Their ministry is rooted in the belief that no one is beyond the reach of God’s grace and that true freedom is found only in Jesus Christ. They are passionate about sharing the Gospel, strengthening families, equipping believers, serving their community with compassion, and creating a place where people can encounter the transforming love and power of Jesus.
