In the 1980s, Bill Wachtel and Anthony Buzzard made contact with Mario Olcese in Lima, Peru. Since that time, Mario, and then Beder Ucañay, pastored the congregation in Lima. Ministries included a Bible training center, door to door outreach, and children’s ministry. Sadly, after ten years of pastoring, Beder lost his battle to eye cancer. Currently, the congregation in maintained by Maria, Beder’s widow.

Edwin Mauricio, a former Movimiento Misionero Mundial pastor, came to believe in One God and the Kingdom of God on earth through his studies as a college professor. Edwin shepherds several other pastors from the movement who have started churches of their own. Currently, eleven congregations gather in Peru! In addition, Edwin teaches several families in Cuenca, Ecuador who have come to believe as we do.

Pastor Lesly Bertrand oversees 24 churches in Haiti. Five of the congregations have a physical church building while the remaining 19 congregations are awaiting resources to build churches. Some of Lesly's ministries include serving food to over 300 children a month, caring for and educating orphans and hosting leadership seminars to equip and teach pastors.

In 1994, Lesly came to belive in the One True God and the Kingdom of God through studying Alva Huffer's Systematic Theology. Several teams have travelled to Haiti in the following years. Haitians rely on God to provide for them through the harsh storms and hurricanes that has caused massive damage to their homes and church buildings.

In 1961, Roberto Badillo travelled from Mexico to Blanchard, Michigan to work as a migrant worker. Upon his return home to Mexico, he brought with him the first Bible in the entire village. Since that time, Roberto and Lupe Badillo have shared the gospel message with hundreds of people. Roberto passed away in August 2006. We currently send monthly aid to Lupe in the absence of her husband. May God bless the seeds that have been planted through the Badillo's ministries.
