Rick and Betty were married in 2000 and have been serving in Ecuador. Rick’s ministry focuses on leadership training, literature production, Bible translation, and church planting in the Quichua Indian language. After a two-year church-planting internship in Bogotá, Colombia, Rick was ordained as a pastor (teaching elder), and in 2015 the Aschmanns returned to Ecuador to begin a new work in church planting among the Quichua Indians. Since then they have begun a Quichua Bible study that they are praying will blossom into a church. Rick has also been involved in two Bible translation projects in two of the Quichua languages of Ecuador to provide God’s Word in the heart language of the Quichua people. Rick and Betty met in Ecuador in 1999. Betty served with HCJB Global from 1992 until she married Rick in 2000. She worked in an international television production studio, producing Christian programs in Spanish for Latin America. She continues to produce videos on an occasional basis. Rick and his family served for many years in a cooperative agreement between Mission to the World (MTW) and Wycliffe Bible Translators, working in Colombia from 1981-1994. His first wife, Heidi Marie, died in 1997 after a long battle with cancer. In 1998 Rick was reassigned to Ecuador to work in the Quichua Indian language. |

· Reach Beyond (formerly HCJB Global): An evangelical, interdenominational faith mission which historically has been involved primarily in radio broadcasting and other media, and in health care. On Christmas Day 1931, from a makeshift studio inside a sheep shed high in the Andes of Ecuador, HCJB —the world’s first missionary radio station— went on the air with 200 watts of power. Today HCJB World Radio’s ministries truly span the globe, proclaiming the good news using international shortwave, local radio stations and satellite program delivery, as well as training, health care, technical services and television program production.
