Senderis Mission is dedicated to training pastors and leaders in Latin America. We are looking for someone to help with all aspects of our state-side operations including:
Fundraising (print and digital),
Facebook updates and promotion,
Filing and organization,
Donor communication.
This is a great opportunity to learn about global missions and also how a non-profit organization works. You will have to raise your support or volunteer. I would prefer someone with Spanish speaking ability (specially reading or writing), but there is enough to do that I can also use English only speakers. So if you don’t know Spanish and are really interested, feel free to contact me as well. Travel to Latin America could also be worked in to the position. I am looking for people with a passion for world mission who are also very well organized, computer and web savvy, and prompt communicators. You should probably also live in Bellingham, WA, which is where the office is set up.
The recent trip to La Havana, Cuba was very exciting and productive. In an intense three days I met lots of Christian leaders and made especially strong ties with a local ministry called (translated) Tower of Blessing. This is a house church movement across Cuba that has brought some 150,000 Cubans to faith in Christ and continues to evangelize day in and day out.
Because or the growth they are seeing, there is also intense interest in leadership training. This is where Senderis will be able to help. Tower of Blessing is already creating a seminary course of study in conjunction with other ministries, so this will be our first project together. However, we are also looking beyond the Cuban context to partner in ministry in other countries as well. Please pray for our growing partnership in Cuba!

Lima is a city surrounded by hills which in many cases house the poorest of the poor. These are people who have come from the provinces, sometimes to escape violence related to the Shinning Path, a Marxist group in that country. The people live in shacks and without running water. There is some electricity, but it comes from an informal network of wires that people have added on to randomly and, aside from being extremely dangerous, it has very low wattage. Huge water trucks lumber up and down the steep sandy streets bringing non-drinkable water which is stored in barrels in front of the houses. I’ve watched these trucks do controlled slides down the steep streets. Continue reading 'How can We Help Pamplona Alta?'»
Brayan Llano is a young Christian leader in Cochabamba, Bolivia. Over the course of two years of interaction with Brayan it has become obvious that he shares many of the core values of Senderis: an interest in theological education, interdenominational work, and training pastors who lack resources. Because of this and because of his expressed interest in working with us, we have entered into a partnerships which will greatly help Senderis achieve its mission of training pastors and leaders in Latin America, specifically, in Bolivia.

Some of you may remember that last year I put on a conference with Randolf Mercelita in Lima, Peru. Randolph has been teaching pastoral counseling at a Bible School in Texas for the last 8 years, and he is absolutely passionate about training Latin American leaders in this area.
Well, as it turns out Randolph has decided to move into an international training ministry and teaching through conferences and other events. Since we had already worked together, he contacted me to see if he could join up with Senderis as a ministry partner. After several conversations, prayer and input from the board of directors, we are happy to announce that we are going forward! This is an historic step and promises to expand the reach of Senderis’ vision to train pastors and leaders in developing churches.
are trying out the model of three speakers three topics three days in Peru, and I am also making plans to do it in Bolivia in May. First I will be teaching a class on world religions at a Bible school in Santa Cruz. Then I will travel to Cochabamba for another pastor’s conference where we will again do the 3-3-3 model.
Of all the places I have visited, Bolivia seems to be the most eager for outside help. However, Bolivian Christians are also very excited about missions. In Cochabamba there is a school training Christian workers to go all over the world. How can people in one of the poorest countries of the Americas raise funds for international missions? Well for one thing they are committed. But many missionaries from Bolivia also find ways to participate with other mission endeavors that help with financing. Good missionary practice says, however, that a missionary should never be fully supported by outsiders. Some support must always come from the local home church or region. Otherwise ownership of the mission enterprise is lost. So Bolivians are not off the hook! Continue reading 'Bolivia 3.3.3'»
