After traveling as missionaries around the world in 2024, Riley and her husband, Jack, live in Nashville, Tennessee.

JoAnn Doyle

Not Forgotten President & Founder JoAnn Doyle and her husband Tom have been married for 41 years and have 6 children and 17 grandchildren. Worship and prayer are the heart of JoAnn’s life, along with a deep love for her family. JoAnn was a pastor’s wife for 20 years before God called the Doyles into full-time mission work in the Middle East. What surprised JoAnn most of all was that soon after she began her work in the region, God birthed in her a love for the women of the Middle East, especially Muslim women. “I didn’t understand them and their needs, and to be honest they kind of intimidated me. But soon God broke my heart for them. I was truly able to see them through our Father’s eyes.” This led JoAnn to launch a ministry for women in the Middle East called Not Forgotten. The team has ministered in many places including Israel, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, Korea, and right here in the United States. The ministry reaches out to Jewish and Muslim women with the love of Christ and inspires others to join them. In 2017, God called Tom and JoAnn to begin a new ministry, Uncharted. With Uncharted Ministries’ vision to sound the alarm and inspire believers to join God’s great harvest among Jews and Muslims, Not Forgotten fit perfectly under this new umbrella. JoAnn shares of God's stunning work in the Muslim world as a guest on various national TV and radio programs such as Focus on the Family, Moody Radio, and Mission Network News. JoAnn is also the host of “Flourish”, a women’s TV program broadcasting the name of Jesus into Iran, home of the fastest growing church per capita which is predominantly led by women. She and Tom co-authored Women Who Risk: Secret Agents for Jesus in the Muslim World, and Breakthrough: The Return of Hope to the Middle East.

Tom Doyle

President & Founder Uncharted Ministries Tom Doyle fell in love with the Middle East on his first Biblical tour to Israel. In 1999, he became an official tour guide for the state of Israel and along the way, developed a passion for ministering to the Israeli people, both Jews and Arabs alike. In 2001, right before the September 11th attacks, Tom left the pastorate and he and his wife JoAnn began working full time in the Middle East: Iran, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, and Israel. As President of Uncharted Ministries, Tom, and the team seek to Reach the Unreached and Stand with the Persecuted. A gifted storyteller, Tom brings God's astounding work in these nations to light. Whether in his books, on television (FOX News, Glenn Beck, The 700 Club, 100 Huntley Street), on the radio (Focus on the Family, Janet Parshall Live, American Family Radio), at conferences (Epicenter, Passion, Open Doors, Voice of the Martyrs, Calvary Chapel, The Crescent Project), or in local churches, Tom shares fresh, compelling, and thought-provoking reports of God's activity. In 2020, Uncharted launched I Found the Truth, a powerful video ministry which shares stories of former Muslims who now love Jesus passionately. Tom and JoAnn have six children and seventeen grandchildren. Tom and JoAnn co-authored Women Who Risk: Secret Agents for Jesus in the Muslim World, which explores the incredible stories of Muslim women who have been transformed by the love of Christ and have become an unstoppable force in the Middle East. Tom is also author of Dreams and Visions: Is Jesus Awakening the Muslim World?, a remarkable collection of real-life stories of how God is supernaturally drawing Muslims to Himself. Killing Christians: Living the Faith Where It’s Not Safe to Believe takes readers to secret meetings, torture rooms, grim prisons, and even the executions of those who choose faith over survival in countries hostile to the Gospel of Christ. He is also author of Standing in the Fire: Courageous Christians Living in Frightening Times, a finalist for the 2018 ECPA book of the year, telling the triumphant stories of Middle Eastern heroes of faith who feared God more than terrorist groups like ISIS.
