Almost two years ago, Faith Baptist Church—the first church we planted in Chile—started a Bible study in the Pedro Aguirre Cerda community in central Santiago. Since then, the members of Faith Baptist have seen God work in amazing ways in this area and through the group of believers meeting there. God also placed a desire in the hearts of Claudio and Carina Orellana to plant a church in this community, and in the fall of 2024, Faith Baptist sent them out as church planters. Last month, the Orellanas got the keys to what will soon be the home of Peace Baptist Church!
We’re so excited to see this new church plant come to life. Please pray for Peace Baptist as they kick off an evangelistic English class next week with missionaries Joe and Hallie Taylor and Tracy Paver. The goal is to connect with more people in the community and invite them to church to hear the hope of the gospel.
