He received his early education from a Baptist Missionary school in the district of Barisal, Bangladesh. He obtained his M.Com degree (Master of Commerce, major in Business Management) from the University of Dhaka, Bangladesh and later Doctor of Ministry from Freedom Bible college and Seminary, Arkansas, USA. In his professional life in Bangladesh, he continuously served in senior positions for fifteen years in various private companies and foreign organizations. In 1992, Aldrin married Silvia K.

Since 2003, Aldrin has been involved with All Nations Baptist Church through volunteering, serving, and assisting the church in many different ways.

In 1999, Aldrin submitted his heart and life to the Lord Jesus Christ as his personal Savior. From that day, he began to feel God’s call for ministry on his heart and mind. After many years of being faithful to the Lord, God miraculously allowed Aldrin to be ordained by All Nations Baptist Church,Woodhaven, New York, USA to be their pastor. Aldrin continues his studies and training as he seeks to lead, the Bangla ministry of All Nations Baptist Church for God’s glory. In his personal time, Aldrin enjoys singing Bangla, and Hindi songs and reading religious books, magazines and articles.

James was raised in the DFW area of North Central Texas. After receiving Christ as Saviour in March of 2017, he became deeply involved with a local Baptist church in Saginaw, Texas. There, he learned much of the Christian life and developed a personal walk with the Lord. In 2019, he surrendered to full-time Christian service and moved to Lancaster, California the following year to attend West Coast Baptist College. During his training, he had opportunities to serve local churches, develop bus routes, and even travel the country one summer as an evangelist. After 3 years of Bible College training, he came to Queens to serve with us here at All Nations Baptist Church. It was here that he met his wife, Lana, and continues to hone the gifts and skills God has given him to serve. 

Currently, James serves our congregation by leading our Teen Ministry, helping our pastor, and teaching the Bible on various occasions

Shortly after graduating from Eastern Michigan University, John moved to New York City to pursue a career in art. He was raised in a Catholic home, and considered himself a moral person. Soon, however, he got caught up in the party scene, and ended up in the hospital with alcohol poisoning. His near-death experience shook him, and he knew he needed a change. He started taking his Bible around to different churches, seeking truth. One day while walking down the street, a dear lady from All Nations Baptist Church handed him a gospel tract and invited him to church. The next evening, he went to church and heard the good news of the gospel for the first time—how he could KNOW he had eternal life. That day, July 23, 1990, John placed his faith in Jesus alone, and was born again into the family of God. John’s life changed dramatically. He no longer needed the party scene, had a deep hunger for God’s Word, and loved sharing the gospel with others. 

John felt called into the ministry in 1995, and went to Tennessee Temple University for theological training. John moved back to New York in 2000, and has served in various capacities here in the city in evangelism and church planting, and now as outreach pastor at All Nations since 2023. John’s desire is to share the gospel everywhere he goes, and to encourage and equip every church member to engage in sharing the Word of God with all people. He is also the Hebrew Studies coordinator, educating the church on the Jewishness of the New Testament and seeking to remove barriers between the Jewish and Gentile understanding of Scripture. “For he (Jesus) is our peace, who hath made both (Jew and Gentile) one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us.” Ephesians 2:14

Joy was born and reared in Mexico, where her parents and grandparents were missionaries. She grew up hearing the gospel at home, but when she was nine years old everything clicked for her and became personal. She clearly saw her need and was born again into the family of God. A few years later, after struggling with doubts about God and the Bible, she accepted the challenge to read through the Bible in a year. That year, she fell in love with Jesus and the Word of God and committed her life to serving the Lord full time. As a young teen, she began working in the church her parents were planting, teaching the Bible to younger children, working in Junior Church, writing puppet scripts, and using her creative skills to organize children’s programs. Joy graduated from Pensacola Christian College with a degree in Commercial Art and Bible, and has spent her adult life looking for creative ways to communicate God’s Word and His love to both women and children. As Children’s Director at All Nations, Joy knows how important it was for her to embrace the gospel as a child, and it is her deep desire to see every child who comes to church “get it” too. As a mom of young adults, she also has a desire to help parents start early and be their own kids’ number one Bible teacher at home. Joy is bilingual and works with both English and Spanish speaking families.
