New Ministry to Quechuas

New Quechua mission church under construction in Riobamba, Ecuador. This home church began a year ago, and has over 50 baptized believers. They sensed God leading them to build, and provided their own funds, and gave of their time freely to construct the building.  

Q

uechua was the official language of the Inca Empire, who ruled the Andes region of South America from the mid-1400s until the arrival of the Spanish conquistadores in 1532. During the 1820's, the Spanish colonies rebelled against Spain and succeeded in establishing independent republics.

Quechua culture originated in central Peru at least a thousand years before the rise of the Inca Empire in the early 1400's.  The Quechua language spread up and down the Andes as a trade language, long before the Inca adopted it. In recent years, the Quechuas in Ecuador have realized the importance of Spanish as the official language, but have kept their great Quechua culture.

Wil and Ann lived for 20 years in Ecuador and conducted evangelistic campaigns in Quechua communities. The Quechua work has flourished from a handful of believers before 1960 to literally thousands of baptized believers today.

Alberto Copa and a group of Quechua leaders have asked Wil to present Evangelism Workshops at several locations and provide a Pastor's Conference in 2011. The initial response to these workshops gives us a strong sense of God's leading in this new ministry.

At the conclusion of the first day of Evangelism Workshop in Juan Montalvo, Ecuador, 95% of the congregation came forward during the invitation. There was a powerful sense of the presence of God during the service.

q                   We have prepared one-day Evangelism Workshops for churches in Latin America.  These are patterned after the personal evangelism course we teach pastors and church leaders, but are shorter.  This course has proven to be very practical and effective in personal evangelism. It was first used in Ecuador and Honduras.  The vision for training rural pastors began with this course in mind while serving as a missionary in Honduras.
