Through talks with Merge Ministries and Serve Globally (our Covenant missions office); it was suggested that there is a real need for servants in the southern cone: Argentina, Chile, Uruguay. At the time of this writing, we will be the only ECC Missionaries in the southern cone. Argentina is a large country 2.8 million square kilometres! The Iglesia del Pacto Evangélico Argentina is made up of six churches. While Argentina isn’t as big a country as Canada, the six churches are spread out like us, posing a logistical challenge. We won’t be going in blind; our first 3 month tour was a fact-finding mission. We had some fantastic conversations with each of the pastors and spent some quality time with the President of the conference. It will be exciting to see some of the ideas we talked about come together. We have been receiving frequent updates from them about plans for us; they are very eager for us to return.   So how will we be serving there? We will be working under the direction of the President of the IPEA utilizing the Covenant’s Pathway to Vitality, available in both Spanish and English, as well as other ECC materials from the US and other Latin America countries. We will be serving as support for the pastors […]http://blogs.covchurch.org/nahnychuk/wp-content/uploads/sites/139/2018/04/car-300x224.jpg
