Perú

In 2012, a ministry with local children in the Santa Anita community in Lima, Perú started out of an urgency to respond to violence and abuse in dysfunctional homes. The purpose was to teach them life principles and values from the Word of God. In November 2015, Pastor Joel and his wife Renate, along with Alexis Cevallos, a member of the Latino congregation who is from Lima, decided to visit the children’s ministry to see how they could support the work. Two years later, the Lord confirmed to Pastors Kelvin and Joel to come alongside these children’s families and give them an opportunity to grow in the Word of God. Over the years, the ministry has grown and Miguel Cevallos currently pastors the church.
