Argentina Medical Missions Team Trip

Argentina

Trip Description: TBD 2025

In cooperation with local pastors, we will be conducting clinics in local churches to assess a variety of medical needs. Part of the team will work with nationals to take simple patient histories. As patients share about their physical health, we also aim to have conversations about their spiritual health, and the reason for our trip and care for them.

Team Members Needed
Ministry Support Funds: $1,300/per participant
Airfare: $1,100-$1,300
Miscellaneous Expenses: $100+

The Need

Argentina is a geographically large and diverse country with a population of about 48 million people. The vast majority live in urban areas, with almost one-third of the entire population living in the greater Buenos Aires area. The tumultuous political history of the 20th century contributed to the worsening of the country’s economic situation, and has deeply affected many Argentines both economically and culturally.

Most Argentines have European ancestry due to Spanish colonization that began in the 16th century and heavily influenced the development of a blended European and Latin American culture in the country. Along with European influence came Roman Catholicism, to which almost 90% of Argentines still subscribe.

Though most Argentines consider themselves Christians, religious practice and affinity is declining, particularly among the younger generation. Yet, Argentines are offered religious freedom and a growing number are finding true freedom in a relationship with Jesus Christ. Biblically-faithful evangelism, discipleship, and church planting in Argentina are desperately needed to bring hope to the nation and support to its local believers.
