But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. Acts 1:8
About the country of Colombia
Colombia is a beautiful country with a plethora of landscapes and people. The country ranges from beautiful lowland valleys and coastal plantations to high mountain jungles and remote villages. Colombia is home to the majestic Andes mountains and at its southern tip lurks the mysterious Amazon. Its rich and lush geography make Colombia one of the world’s most stunning countries on earth.
The people are just as unique. A country once inhabited completely by indigenous tribes, is now composed of a mixture of European and African roots. This diversity has blended wonderfully and the Colombians are a beautiful and spirited people.
Spiritually, the country of Colombia has a pagan history that stems from its ancestry of Indian tribes. The current spiritual majority is that of the domineering Catholic Church, which claims over 90% of the country’s population. This spiritual combination makes Colombia a nation completely cloaked with dangerous and violent processes, false security, and no real eternal hope.
Decades of rampant drugs, corruption, violence, and fear have ravaged this land. The need for the gospel of Jesus Christ to be preached is overwhelming and few are willing to go. We believe that God has shared with us His vision for the Colombian people and has touched our hearts to go into this dark land. Click here for more on Colombia.
