She is a gifted leaders in the Arco Cuenca church. Marilyn and her husband have been missionaries in Ecuador and Peru, since 1988. They have recently gone back to pastoring one of the Arco churches in Cuenca, while John continues to supervise and mentor in 11 other Arco churches in Ecuador as well as churches in Cuba and Brazil. More information about the Arco group of churches can be found at www.arcoministries.org They have a non-profit foundation and full-time clinic in Cuenca, that provides the legal umbrella for our team to enter and work in-country. We’ll get a peek at that during the week! More info at https://www.familyhealthfnd.org/. They have been hosting GHO teams since 1999.
We would love to have you on this team as we will worship together, laugh together, cry together and serve our Lord and His children together. Join us for an adventure of a lifetime!
