Vision: to see God glorified in Pichilemu, Chile, through building up the local church so that it becomes a regional gospel hub for planting and strengthening new churches.&nbsp; Mission: to serve, equip and support El Faro, the first Reformed church in Pichilemu (also the surf capital of Chile), through pastoral ministry, theological training and development of a culture of care as we pursue future church planting in the Sixth Region of Chile. <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/hxn9dbuhd/image/upload/v1771100310/wysiwyg/bfcck3zod5p91hwr2zdb.jpg" style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; position: relative; max-width: 100%; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; user-select: none; box-sizing: inherit;" fr-original-style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable"> What do we need: gospel collaborators and friends. We want to invite churches, families and individuals to be part of a vision and mission that seeks to glorify God in the surf capital of Chile and Latin America. We believe that Pichilemu can become a key gospel hub for the 33 cities that make up the Sixth Region of Chile. Towards this end, El Faro is calling the Guerreros to be part of their church family. Joining us means three things:&nbsp;i) to support us by praying for us,&nbsp;ii) by sharing how you would like us to pray for you, and&nbsp;iii) as monthly financial supporter collaborators who have decided in their own hearts, not reluctantly or under compulsion, but cheerfully (2 Cor 9:7), to support God&#39;s mission in Pichilemu, Chile through the Guerrero family.&nbsp;We are happy to partner with Proyecto Nehemias, a 501(c)3 organisation that promotes the translation of gospel-centred books into Spanish.You can donate in $USD and &pound;GBP. Why: the 20 million people of Chile are on the move, hoping to improve their quality of life. As men and women seek safety and a place to raise their families, some Chileans are moving away from large cities. They move to the south or to smaller cities like Pichilemu in Chile&rsquo;s Sixth Region. <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/hxn9dbuhd/image/upload/v1771100329/wysiwyg/bq4qgbxntk9bjm44vfvs.jpg" style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; position: relative; max-width: 100%; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; user-select: none; box-sizing: inherit;" fr-original-style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable"> This region, made up of 33 cities s economically significant for its agriculture, world-class wine, and El Teniente, one of the largest underground copper mines in the world.

Pichilemu&rsquo;s thriving coastal culture makes it Chile&rsquo;s and Latin America&rsquo;s surf capital. Yet without a faithful gospel presence, this idyllic setting will offer only a fleeting hope to the people of Chile. As the first evangelical Reformed Church in Pichilemu, El Faro (The Lighthouse) seeks to be a faithful gospel presence, sharing the beautiful message of lasting, eternal security through Jesus Christ.&nbsp; <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/hxn9dbuhd/image/upload/v1771101045/wysiwyg/cgvrscvw1w70xuua2olq.jpg" style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; position: relative; max-width: 100%; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; user-select: none; box-sizing: inherit;" fr-original-style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable"> El Faro also seeks to support existing churches, church planting and church revitalization in Chile&rsquo;s Sixth Region. El Faro needs help as she establishes church officers and forms pastoral teams to reach this goal.&nbsp; <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/hxn9dbuhd/image/upload/v1771100403/wysiwyg/zztto3kexv1xfah1wmjl.jpg" style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; position: relative; max-width: 100%; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; user-select: none; box-sizing: inherit;" fr-original-style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable"> By God&#39;s providence, we are going to join the work that pastor John Palma, Suamy Lat&iacute;n (his wife), and many others have been doing for years to serve the people of Pichilemy. We are thrilled to work alongside people whose passion is to glorify God, edify the saints and reach the lost! Who: the Guerrero family,&nbsp;Rev. Dr. Israel Guerrero (37), Camila Venegas (35), and their children Emma (7) and Eilidh (5).After eight years of ministry and academic study in Scotland, the Guerrero family is returning to Chile with a unique set of experience and skills. Pastor Israel Guerrero, who holds a Ph.D. in Systematic Theology (University of Edinburgh), and Camila, a certified in biblical counselor (BCUK), have until now served in the Free Church of Scotland and launched a Spanish-speaking ministry in Edinburgh. This combination of theological training and practical pastoral experience has prepared them, by God&rsquo;s grace and His providence, to strengthen the Reformed faith and missional outreach within the church in Chile.<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/hxn9dbuhd/image/upload/v1771101065/wysiwyg/oilbx6syryczqimgpmjs.jpg" style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; position: relative; max-width: 100%; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; user-select: none; box-sizing: inherit;" fr-original-style="width: 600px; display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable">&nbsp;How: we believe in the importance of a pastoral ministry focused on the ordinary means of grace for the growth of the church. We believe that through the preaching of the Gospel &mdash;in the power of the Holy Spirit&mdash; God saves sinners to lead them to glorify God and enjoy Him forever. We believe that, through the administration of the sacraments, believers are strengthened in their faith to go and make disciples. We believe that discipleship is healthy when it is rooted in the gospel and marked by fellowship and community.&nbsp; To support church planting and revitalization, theological training is key. In different ways over the past few years, evangelical churches in Chile are becoming Reformed in their theology. In fact, El Faro is one of many churches now focused on developing a gospel-centered ministry. However, there is a lack of adequate theological training for people who can&rsquo;t attend seminary due to time, money, or lack of educational qualifications. We believe that every believer should receive a good theological formation to serve in the diversity of their vocations. This is exactly where we want to serve to fill that gap.&nbsp; To that end, Israel will be working in two areas. First, Israel will serve as a lecturer for MDiv and B.A. students of a Reformed seminary in Chile. Secondly, Israel will assist in creating a curriculum to provide free high-quality theological education for everyone in the community&mdash;men and women who want a theology applied to all of everyday life. This last project is called Reformados y Conectados (Reformed and Connected). The vision is for participants to learn Reformed theology alongside friends from the local church and other churches in the Sixth region. Finally, the development of a culture of care through the insights that biblical counselling can provide is an area that needs serious further work in evangelical contexts due to deep wounds caused by previous church experiences. &nbsp;Church members need to know that in the body of Christ, they can find a safe place where people can be known and loved, thereby growing together to be like Christ through the means of grace and healthy relationships among church members. This culture of care will be developed by structuring and equipping the church in ways that enable people to be well cared for in their needs (pastoral team, one-on-one, discipleship, and weekly meetings).&nbsp;When: June 2026 to December 2031. The first year will be spent settling in in Pichilemu, getting to know the city&rsquo;s culture, starting the theological training curriculum, and doing pastoral work (preaching and discipleship). The second and third years will be focused on the formation of church officers and a pastoral team with the goal of joining the PCA-Chile. The fourth and fifth years will focus on preparing people who want to serve and plant churches in the Sixth Region of Chile.&nbsp; If you want to know more, please email Rev.
