Argentina: Indigenous Mission Congress

7 October 2022

Argentina, Latin America, Magazine October 2022

Please pray for the Indigenous Mission Congress in La Caldera, Salta, running until 10 October. Participants have travelled from across the region for this event, so please pray for a special and significant time for all of the participants and a chance to see how they might all walk together in mission in God’s “good path” (Jeremiah 6:16). As a declaration is drafted as part of the congress to coincide with the day of the meeting of two worlds, pray for attentiveness to God’s voice and leading and that the declaration might reflect the way forward for mission in the contexts represented. Follow CMS on social media for news from the congress.
