A Great Challenge at the End of the World
Missionary Valeria Bustamante faces a great challenge: raising enough funds to begin her diaconal and missionary service in Uruguay.
Valeria is a deaconess whose inspiring work has taken her not only across her native Argentina but also to Chile and, previously, for 9 years, to Uruguay.
In her first term there, from 2010 to 2019, she helped establish and strengthen a mission in downtown Montevideo, the capital of the South American country. There, she served individuals with deep physical and spiritual needs—people who are often marginalized by society.
Now, Valeria is taking on a new commitment: to serve in Salto and Chapicuy, more than 400 kilometers from the capital city, and to support Pastor Maicon Schieferdecker.
To fund her mission, the Iglesia Luterana del Uruguay (Lutheran Church of Uruguay, ILU) has partnered with Global Lutheran Outreach, contributing 50% of the budget goal. The aim is to raise the remaining 50%.
While this goal is being reached, Valeria continues to serve in Montevideo, working alongside Pastor André Müller, President of the ILU, and with LHM/CPTLN – Uruguay, where she is a tremendous support to the staff of this organization by helping public school students with their homework.
Uruguay is one of the most secular countries in Latin America.
