Connecting with Chilean churches for partnerships

Kentucky Baptists, working with the International Mission Board, is embarking on a new emphasis with the goal of reaching Chile with the gospel of Jesus Christ.

“The idea of this trip for us was to find true partnerships with Chilean churches,” said Brad Walker, pastor of Briensburg Baptist Church in Benton and president of the Kentucky Baptist Convention.

He was one of 19 people from Kentucky who took a vision tour to Chile on March 13-20.

“Churches there are doing a wonderful job of teaching and discipling,” Walker said. “I was very impressed with the teaching and preaching I heard. There is just a lack of churches. The need is to partner and plant more churches.”
