After landing in Peru, we will travel to Chile and then split into small teams for training and ministry. You’ll visit schools, villages, bustling markets, and streets to share the Gospel using drama and interactive visual aids.
In the evenings, we will participate in city-wide family festivals organized by Global Ventures. We will then engage in hands-on service projects providing essentials like water filters, food, and hygiene packages. This is our chance to make a real impact!
So I am excited about this opportunity because I took Spanish for seven years in school and I can speak Spanish fairly well, – enough to have a conversation and share my faith in Jesus Christ

We will break into small teams during ministry and share the Gospel in schools, villages, markets, and streets. In the evening we will host city-wide family festivals (crusades) in public spaces. We will also be helping to enrich communities through service projects. We will venture into two regions to bring the Gospel to these precious people. Team members will have connecting flights to a U.S. city and fly together with the Global Ventures staff to Chile.
Years ago, I loved to go on Mission Trips. When I worked at the Abundant Life Prayer Group at Oral Roberts Ministries, at the Abundant Life Prayer Group, after praying 40 hours a week (which was a lot of spiritual work!) I had no desire to go anywhere. But now I work for Liberty University from home in Rolla, MO as a New Enrollment Specialist and go to church here in Waynesville, MO at The River (pastored by Howie & Melanie Malone – www.theriver.net)
My book: “I Want to Witness, But What Do I Say?” is a wonderful took for witnessing. I have also given out hundreds of tracts that I created at Fort Leonard Wood Army base on various holidays (Halloween Thanksgiving Christmas, Valentine’s St Patrick’s Day, Easter, Memorial Day & 4th of July, and Labor Day). A dozen soldiers have given their hearts to the Lord this year and prayed a Salvation Prayer after me there! I give Him all the glory!
In the past, I have gone on these 7 Short-Term ( a week to 10 days) MISSIONS TRIPS:
1. Nicaragua – went with (evangelical) Calvary Church in Charlotte, NC in August 1992
2. Sierra Leone, W. Africa – with Rev. Russ Tatro – Living Word Missions in March 1994
3. Sierra Leone & Liberia, W. Africa – Living Word/Mike Francen Ministries in November 1995
4. Guatemala – with Victory World Missions Training Center class – in July 1996
5. Nigril, Jamaica – taught in a Bible School there founded by Dr. Clive Wilson in November 2002
6. Lahore, Pakistan – taught “Fruits of the Spirit” in the 1st Victory Bible Institute in October 2003
7. Paraguay with Global Ventures in June 2024. Our whole group was able to get over 17, 400 saved!
So I have a lot of experience on the Mission Field. In 1996, I even went to Victory World Mission Training Center to get trained to become a missionary. It was a long time ago, but I still have such a desire to go to the nations!
