South America
List of South America Missionaries
For decades South America has been wide open to the Gospel. Missionaries have streamed into the twelve countries and one foreign territory that make up this part of the world. They have been blessed with good success in winning souls, establishing churches and training national leadership. However, in recent years, socialistic and even communistic influences have made ministry difficult in some countries, to the extent that some doors could soon close to missionaries.
While Spanish is the predominate language of this largely Hispanic continent, Portuguese, English, Dutch and French are also spoken in South America. Caribbean, European and ancient Indian cultures also greatly influence parts of South America, creating a truly culturally diverse mission field.
Because of its shear vastness and large population, BIMI has administratively separated Portuguese speaking Brazil from the rest of South America, assigning it its own field director. The combined population of the remaining eleven countries and French Guiana, which is actually a French state located on the South American mainland, approaches some 200,000,000 souls. BIMI currently has twenty-eight families and two single ladies dedicated to reaching South America. Missionaries are working in nine of those eleven countries, but the opportunities are so great. Even if we could double our missionary presence over the next few years, we still would not begin to meet the tremendous need in South America!
