The Baileys joined the current work in 2005, arriving in November after a brief introduction to language at the Language School in Morogoro. Their original emphasis in the work was specifically in town as one of the transitional families helping to assimilate the town work into the larger mission and strategy. In order to better utilize their gifts they have broadened their ministries to include among other things administration and team logistical services (Aaron) and teaching among the women both in town and the village (Marisa). They are supported by North Boulevard Church of Christ in Murfreesboro, Tennessee.

They currently have three children Trey (8) and Rayna (2) and Faith (1). Trey enjoys cooking, reading, football (both American and International), and doing his homeschool lessons about the Solar System and Dinosaurs. Rayna loves jewelry, Trey's toys, helping her "Baba" cook, washing dishes and pestering Trey. As Faith learns to walk she enjoys imitating Rayna by pestering her the way Rayna pesters Trey. Together the family enjoys playing games, watching a movie together and taking walks down by the lake.

They are also regular users of Facebook. (Ok, so Marisa is regular and Aaron is a more occasional presence)
