In the last 20 years the demographic of our district has change. There is an estimated 200,000 Hispanics in Iowa. Also over 200,00 Hispanics in Missouri and over 200,000 Hispanics in Arkansas. We have a mission field of over 600,000 people to reach with the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. We currently have 5 Hispanic ministries, and we are working hard to develop new leaders to start new Hispanic ministries in our district.

Every year Hidden Acres host our Hispanic families who travel from 8 different states. We use this time for fellowship and, leadership training to equip the churches to minister in their communities. Our 2024 retreat will be on August 9-11. We welcomed close to 400 people in 2023.

We had our first church plant training in 2023. We are working hard on training new church planters and this training provides the necessary tools to start a new church or ministry. Dates for the church plant training in 2024 to come soon. We provide this training in different cities in the US.
