MAKING DISCIPLES
DEVELOPING LEADERS
TRANSFORMING COMMUNITIES
Life in the jungle is undeniably tough with urgent physical and spiritual needs. That is precisely why we have dedicated ourselves to bringing hope to the people of the Amazon for almost 75 years.
We meet them where they are, caring for their bodies with desperately needed medical and dental services while also nourishing their souls with the truth about Jesus. This kind of effort goes way beyond short term missions to create lasting change.
Real transformation requires a genuine personal investment from our indigenous pastors, staff and volunteers who invest deeply in these communities. Their efforts have proven effective to made disciples, train future leaders in our seminaries, and launch those new leaders to transform their communities.
WHY CHOOSE US:
Long-standing history (70+ years)
Indigenous staff
Combined physical + spiritual care
Access to remote villages
6 Training centers serving 3 countries
Like a powerful and steady current we are bringing hope, healing, and meaningful transformation to remote jungle communities.
Our Mission Is To:
Make Disciples
Your team plants and waters with care, and they may also witness a harvest, but that’s only the beginning of the journey. Our pastors and staff return to foster relationships that help bring about meaningful and long-lasting change.
Develop Leaders
Our work continues as we identify potential leaders to be trained in our seminary. Our indigenous pastors and staff equip new leaders that are launched into their own community to lead churches and disciple others.
Transform Communities
A community of disciples that have well trained spiritual leaders will bring long term, sustainable impact to a community. The power of the gospel to transform a single life will naturally be multiplied to many others.
This Is Not A Quick Fix
We foster long term relationships because it takes time to change individuals and their community:
Meet physical needs to build trust
Share the gospel with compassion
Disciple new believers consistently
Train indigenous leaders in our seminary program
Launch these new leaders to make disciples and plant churches
“Without the seminary training of Amazon Vida I would not be able to reach my people with the gospel.”
