Location Description: Ecuador is in northwest South America, on the Pacific coast, astride the equator. It is generally mountainous but with tropical jungle on the eastern side.
General Strategy
General Strategy: We would like to see a strong national church denomination sending out missionaries to unreached areas (two are already sent out), plus strong leadership in all churches. We are also studying new regions for planting churches with indigenous churches as the end result.
Type of Ministry
Ministry Type: CrossWorld missionaries have been focusing on the most responsive areas in the region of South Quito, the capital city. The focus includes direct church planting as well as facilitating national Christians to reach into unreached areas. Ministry strategies include home Bible studies, couples' and women’s ministries, Theological Education by Extension (TEE), youth camps, retreats. Several churches are in various stages of development.
