Minne and his wife, Michele, began their ministry together by teaching and administrating in Christian schools in New Bern, North Carolina and Brantford, Ontario before joining ABWE and serving overseas in Portugal.

In 2016, they assumed the leadership of ABWE Canada and were blessed to serve the Canadian board and missionaries for five years before they were called to serve at the International Headquarters. As Vice President of Global Ministries, he has the unique privilege of serving the entire ABWE family of ministries, and Michele and Minne delight in spending time with the missionary team around the globe.

The Bouma's have two college-age sons, Drew and Caleb.
