SANTIAGO, CHILE TEAM
Broken Families
Chile, a country that once had a strong Catholic influence, is becoming increasingly secular. The nation is full of sexual and relational brokenness. Divorce, co-habitation, and even adultery are so prevalent that they have become an accepted part of the culture. This problem extends even to the Church. Wounded families are searching for help navigating their lives in a culture that often lacks godly role models.
Building up the Church
Reaching out to couples with special counseling courses for families is just one way we are helping to strengthen the Church in Santiago. We've reached our initial goal in partnering with local church leaders to establish a Reformed Presbyterian denomination in Chile. Our aim now is to systematically train the next generation of pastors and church planters to grow into strong leaders for their people. We also aid the Reformed Theological Academy by developing material for seminary education in Spanish, equipping the Chilean Presbyterian churches with whom we work.
