After Arica came the challenge of developing the work in Coquimbo. Our experience in the country accompanies this stage of evangelism, discipleship and care for families. The teaching space and connection with the community are part of this local presence.

In Coquimbo, biblical teaching takes place as people gather. The board supports explanation and community participation. Learning and asking questions are part of a journey that needs continuity.

After years of traveling through Chile and the experience in Arica, developing the work in Coquimbo became a new challenge. Our local presence brings together proclaiming the Gospel, discipleship and caring for families. These records show this setting for teaching.

The missionary family's participation accompanies life in the field. Sheila appears speaking and sharing time with the Coquimbo community. The photographs with the baby and the gatherings at the premises record our field in Coquimbo.

The missionary journey unfolds between family life and serving people. These records show different moments: speaking, being present at gatherings and connecting with the community. This everyday dimension is also part of the ministry's story.
