John Ensor’s contribution to the pro-life movement is recognized in Legacy of Life: Honoring Fifty of the Greatest Pro-Life leaders of the Last Fifty Years (Florida Family Policy Council, 2023). This book, written to commemorate the Dobbs v. Jackson Supreme Court ruling that overturned Roe v.

John Ensor is an Evangelical pastor and leader in the prolife movement. He is the President of PassionLife Ministries and the author of numerous books on theology and ethics, including Innocent Blood: Challenging the Powers of Death with the Gospel of Life. His newest book is Pregnancy Crisis Intervention: What To Do and Say When It Matters Most.

John, along with the PassionLife team, train leaders and their churches in biblical bio-ethics, prolife apologetics and pregnancy crisis intervention. They work in countries suffering the highest rates of abortion, infanticide, and gendercide (gender-targeted abortion) to help the local Church stand for life with courage and compassion in the name of Jesus Christ.

Starting in 1991, John helped churches in Boston establish a network of six ultrasound-equipped pregnancy help medical clinics. In 2006, he went to Miami to train Hispanic and Haitian pastors and their churches in pro-life bioethics and helped them set up five pregnancy crisis intervention ministries. Since 2011, John has taught this blend of theology, bio-ethics and intervention ministries in China, Vietnam, Kazakhstan, Zambia, Ghana, Cuba, and Russia.

John has an undergraduate degree in Biblical Studies from Bethel College (1977) and a Masters of Divinity (M.Div) from Gordon- Conwell Theological Seminary (1981).

John and his wife, Kristen, have been married for 45 years. They have three married children and five grandchildren. They live in Atlanta, GA.

Dr. David Thompson is a retired missionary surgeon who, with his wife Rebecca, served under the Christian & Missionary Alliance at Bongolo Hospital in the country of Gabon for 35 years and at Harpur Memorial Hospital in Egypt for five years. He and his wife, Becki, retired to Redding, California in 2018.

David grew up in Cambodia, the son of missionary parents Ed and Ruth Thompson, both of whom were martyred in Banmethuot, Vietnam, during the 1968 Tet Offensive. David and his wife Becki married in 1971 and have three children and six grandchildren. He is currently 75 years old.

From 1977 to 2014, Dr. Thompson led the Alliance team in Gabon that built Bongolo Hospital. Since the hospital's inception, more than 20,000 patients have come to faith in Jesus, and many churches have been planted in the region, several of which the Thompsons personally started.

In 1996, Dr. Thompson helped establish the Pan-African Academy of Christian Surgeons(PAACS) to respond to Africa's desperate shortage of formally trained surgeons. In 1997, he started one of the first PAACS programs at Bongolo Hospital. He helped train and disciple 20 Christian African surgeons, all of whom continue to serve and proclaim the gospel in Africa. Between 2013 and 2018, Dr. Thompson and his wife Rebecca moved to Egypt to open a new PAACS training program and a nursing school, both of which are still thriving. The Thompsons left Egypt in December 2017 after turning their work over to other Christian faculty surgeons and nursing educators.

Since retiring from full-time missionary service in 2018, Dr. Thompson has remained active on the PAACS Board of Directors, on the Bongolo Hospital board, and two other NGO boards for Christian hospitals in Africa. He has made numerous mission trips to Gabon and Egypt in support of the hospitals he worked at, and this year, he served as the Interim Medical Director of Bongolo Hospital in Gabon during June. Dr. Thompson is also active as a speaker at missions conferences, such as the Prescription for Renewal Conference in Orlando in October of 2022 and the recent Global Health Missions Conference in Louisville, KY. He also speaks several times a year at PAACS fundraisers.

Finally, Dr. Thompson is a volunteer in serving Redding's homeless community, providing medical care in homeless camps, helping drug addicts get into rehab, and being a witness for Christ.

Dr. Thompson has authored five books describing his years of overseas experience: "On Call," "The Hand on My Scalpel," "Beyond the Mist," "Christian Mercy," and "Training God’s Surgeons for Africa." All are available on Amazon.
