The
Location

San Jose

For over 20 years Engage has had the privilege to partner with IberoAmerican Ministries (IAM) and the leaders of their Ecuadorian churches. IAM’s focus is on the local church as they work with teams of missionaries and national pastors to establish a movement of reproducing churches.

On this experience, you will assist and encourage Ecuadorian churches both in urban and rural settings. You will be involved in community outreach with the churches through relationship building and a variety of children’s ministries. IAM has a school of 250 kids (1st-7th grades) and centers in the community for vulnerable children. You will travel to a couple of these locations and join with the local churches to teach Bible lessons to the kids as they hear the truth of the Gospel and how much the Father loves them. If the need is present you may also help with a variety of work projects to help advance the ministry.

IberoAmerican Ministries (IAM)
Motto:

Planting. Serving. Sending.

Focus:

School & Children’s Program / Church Planting

IAM is a church planting and compassion-based organization working to see peoples, communities and nations transformed by Christ, through the global movements of Kingdom disciples. Working in South America, West Africa, the Middle East, and Europe, IAM’s goal is to see disciples of Christ rise up and continue extending His kingdom to other parts of the world. Since 1992 IAM has worked using dynamic discipleship techniques and a variety of compassion and education projects to see this goal come alive. In Ecuador specifically, IAM has served to raise up national leaders who now work with 6 church plants, elementary schools, children’s feeding programs and tutoring programs in low-income communities.
