What Others Are Saying...
“I firmly believe that the local
church is the key to reaching the world’s great
cities for Christ. This is being graphically
demonstrated throughout the exciting and highly
effective work of Church Ministries International
and their work in the local churches of Lima, Peru.
This fine Christian organization deserves the
prayers and support of all who want to be a part of
God’s growing church around the world.”
Billy Graham
International Evangelist
Billy Graham Evangelistic Association
“CMI is one Christian organization
that has read the sociological and economic changes
in Latin America correctly.”
Luis Palau
International Evangelist
Luis Paulau Evangelistic Association
“I never cease to thank God for the
way the Lord has used the outreach of CMI throughout
Latin America. I trust that God will continue to
provide in every way for the projected expansion in
the 20/20 Vision planned for the future. If the past
is any indication of what will happen in the future,
the sky seems to be the limit!”
J. Ronald Blue

CAM International

“At Community Church of Greenwood,
we do not believe in giving to missions—we believe
in INVESTING in missions. We expect a dividend.
Church Ministries International has provided us a
channel in which to invest mission funds which yield
a high rate of return. The sheer numbers of people
that God is reaching through CMI is more than
exciting.”
Pastor Charles Lake (Retired)
Community Church of Greenwood
Greenwood, Indiana
“Church Ministries International’s
financial aid to the Christian and Missionary
Alliance in its evangelistic and church-planting
work, particularly in Lima, Peru; Quito, Ecuador;
and Bogota, Colombia, as well as in some other major
cities, has resulted in thousands of converts and
several new commodious churches. We are grateful for
and heartily endorse their work.”
Dr. Louis L. King
Former President (Deceased)
Christian and Missionary Alliance
Nyack, New York
“We praise God for the far-reaching
ministries of CMI. The ‘Hands On’ experience of our
five lay people in Lima, Peru, changed their lives
and the vision of our church.”
Pastor Douglas Peters
Former Pastor
First Baptist Church
Troy, Ohio
“In Latin America, where many
Protestant missions have struggled for decades, CMI
is crossing the barrier to the middle class. They
are effectively reaching into the secular world of
the Latin American professionals. God obviously has
His hand on this ministry.”
Pastor Roc Bottomly
Focus on the Family
Colorado Springs, Colorado
“What impressed me most is the fact
that CMI is working with several denominational and
faith mission groups who will adopt their strategy.
It is great to see God blessing, not only with
tremendous numbers and daughter churches, but also
with deeply dedicated discipleship.”
Bill Henderson
Pastor (Deceased)
First United Methodist Church
Joplin, Missouri
“I find it refreshing to see a
ministry focused with a clear goal and an effective
means to see God accomplish something great. An
investment in Church Ministries International is an
investment which will pay eternal dividends in the
Kingdom of God.”
Pastor Darryl DelHousaye
President
Phoenix Seminary
Scottsdale, Arizona
“It is always a delight to meet
individuals willing to trust God for their purpose,
vision and strategy. I can say from ‘first hand
exposure’ and ‘on site inspections’ that CMI is
certainly trusting God. God is honoring their faith
and is using this ministry to see hundreds and
thousands of individuals trusting Jesus Christ as
their personal Savior.”
Pastor Carl Green
Former Pastor
Calvary Fellowship Church
Downington, Pennsylvania
“Experience has shown that there is
an obstacle to really explosive church growth in
Latin America’s crowded cities. It is simply the
inability of new converts to finance the
construction of visible and attractive church
facilities that will accelerate evangelism. CMI is
filling that void. As I’ve watched the phenomenal
growth of the Encounter churches in Lima, I’ve
become convinced of the program’s effectiveness.”
C. Peter Wagner
Missiologist/Author/President
World Harvest Ministries
“Church Ministries International’s
strategy for reaching the people of South America
with the Gospel is to develop indigenous leaders who
can then reach their countrymen. I commend them and
endorse them.”
Pastor Robert L. Thune
Southwest Community Church
Indian Wells, California
“I have had the unique opportunity
to be involved with CMI over the past several years,
both as a missionary in Latin America and as a
pastor in the United States. Their incredibly
far-reaching vision is contagious. It is expressed
in well-defined goals and based upon a realistic and
pragmatic strategy that has already been tested. If
anyone gives a hard, honest look at what they are
doing, they will find it difficult not to get
involved.”
Pastor Jeff Adams
Kansas City Baptist Temple
Kansas City, Missouri
“I have no doubt that the work
started in Lima, Peru in 1973 by Church Ministries
International, and now spreading throughout Latin
America through their 20/20 Vision, will go down in
history as a God-sent revival. This is the most
exciting evidence of God’s power I’ve seen in my
lifetime.”
Pastor Paul “Doc” Henry
Former Pastor
Bridgeway Community Church
Austin, Texas
“The strategy of Church Ministries
International is to reach the middle class—the
people who have steady, stable jobs, who can support
the Church and have the ability to reach both the
upper and lower class. CMI is making a significant
impact in the continent of South America.”
Hugh O. Maclellan, Jr.
President
The Maclellan Foundation, Inc.
Chattanooga, Tennessee
“I have watched with rejoicing the
development of Church Ministries International in
Latin America. The Lord is certainly giving
wonderful fruit on the coordinated ministries of
evangelism and Bible teaching. I enthusiastically
recommend this outreach to the mega-cities of Latin
America.”
Abe C. Van Der Puy (Deceased)
Chairman of the Board
HCJB World Radio
“I highly commend Church Ministries
International as it reaches out to the lost in Latin
America.”
