The above picture is actually from the back of a prayer card I picked up from a fellow missionary at a conference a few months ago. Not surprisingly, [...]

We are partnering together with church planting missionaries throughout Latin America to bring you church planting resources to bridge the gap into Latin America.

a couple of years won’t cut it – more church planting thoughts
