Spiritual & Educational Need

Why Latin America?

Latin America presents unique spiritual and educational challenges that create an urgent need for dedicated missionary work. Many communities throughout the region face conditions such as:

  • Limited understanding of the Gospel, resulting in widespread spiritual confusion and uncertainty.

  • Significant influence from non-Christian religions and beliefs, leading many away from biblical truths.

  • Insufficient access to quality education, which impedes both spiritual growth and societal advancement.

  • A shortage of well-trained local pastors and educators capable of effectively teaching the Christian faith.

James and Angie are directly addressing these critical needs by sharing the life-changing message of the Gospel, establishing solid congregations, and providing essential Christian education.Your support helps transform lives and communities across Latin America with lasting spiritual and educational impact.
