Philippe & Regula Kradolfer

Exchange Managers of Global Partnerships
Philippe Jacques, a native of Bolivia with Swiss and American nationality, and his wife Regula Beatrice, a native of Switzerland also holding Swiss and American nationality, have lived and worked in Switzerland, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Mexico, Germany, Russia, Argentina, and Ghana. 

Before joining The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as an employee, Philippe worked in his family's business in Lima, Peru. He then served for nearly 33 years as Director of Temporal Affairs for the Church in several countries-everywhere he lived except Switzerland. Together, Philippe and Regula were involved in numerous international humanitarian projects, including the development of community kitchens, schools, water wells, and dental clinics, as well as the provision of hospital equipment, wheelchairs, emergency relief, and two years of service at the Utah Food Bank. 

Following his retirement, Philippe and Regula continued their service in Ghana, where they worked on publishing photography books about everyday life in the country. They have since published eight books. One of them has received the IBPA Benjamin Franklin Gold Award. In recognition of their contributions, they were honored with the traditional titles Nene Dunenyo I and Manye Zevideka I, becoming cultural ambassadors of the Agotime Traditional Area in Ghana's Volta Region. 

They are the proud parents of four children and grandparents to fifteen grandchildren.
