Missionary Update

 

Chip and Meredith Jones
Chip and Meredith Jones serve with Serge in Chile.  They recently moved to southern Chile in order to reach the Mapuche, a largely unreached people group who live in southern Chile and Argentina.  Pray that God would encourage their hearts as they begin building relationships with many Mapuche (including some of their spiritual leaders), that Jesus would open doors of conversations, and that His light would begin to shine in a dark place.  And please pray for them as they continue to train local leaders to make disciples that continue to carry the gospel to the nations.
