About Us

Mike & Darla Bachelder have been active in ministry since 1980, with an emphasis on intercession since 1995. Mike has served as pastoral oversight for intercession and the prophetic ministry for many years and has been involved with ministry overseas. Mike has worked with, led intercession teams, and/or preached in the UK, Japan, Thailand, Cambodia, Spain and Morocco, as well as numerous places in the U.S.

Along with teaching and training on intercession (Burning Hearts School of Intercession), Mike also operates under a preaching and prophetic anointing. He believes he has been commissioned to travel and preach a message called “Praying for Justice, Restoration and Restitution” throughout the world. Mike and Darla also have a great burden to see the current generation (between 18 and 40 yrs) set free and released into their ministry and calling.

For many years, Mike and Darla served in local churches in the capacity of associate pastors over areas including youth ministry, prayer & intercession, prophetic ministry and office administration. In 2008 Mike and Darla transitioned from their positions as Associate Pastors into the ministry of Intercessory Missionaries.

Mike & Darla currently serve as Founders and Directors of Burning Hearts Ministries. They are connected with Missionary Church International and are covered under the umbrella of their 501-C3 status. They have an accountability/advisory team operating for the ministry and are submitted to local church leadership.

Mike and Darla currently serve as missionaries in Scotland. They have been married for 30 years and have raised five children. They are currently enjoying the addition of grandchildren to their family.
