Vision

EL Monte

The El Monte Ministry Center will have a three-fold purpose. It will serve as a:

El Monte, Spanish for "the Mountain", is designed to serve the local church in Mexico and meet the needs of WEC Mexico. It will be a place of natural beauty, building relationships in small groups, evangelism and discipleship training, and missions mobilization, all for the glory of God.

Camp & Conference Programs:

"Christian camps create a unique environment removed from the influences of a culture which is often hostile to Christianity, and replaces it with a community where biblical truth is both verbally taught AND modeled 24/7. Young people--the most receptive audience--hear about God while they observe His character lived out before their eyes through committed Christian staff. And that is powerful."

Dan DeGroat, Global Outreach Group

Here are some of the possibilities for camp programming at El Monte:

Missionary Training School:

Latin America is waking up to its missionary call. Revival has swept the hemisphere to the extent that one of every four believers in the world is Latin. Young churches are maturing.

Latin Americans make outstanding workers. Many factors make it easier for them to integrate into other cultures. Their relational skills naturally open doors. The fact that they are not from a Western nation will be to their advantage as they apply for visas.

The Cross-cultural Training Center at El Monte will be used to equip and train Latin Americans for missionary work around the globe.

Pastoral Renewal Center:

The Pastoral Renewal Center at EL Monte seeks to provide a safe haven where Christian leaders can retreat from the demands of ministry to receive hope, encouragement and renewal, biblically-based counseling and healing. The Center will serve Latin American pastors and spouses, para-church ministry leaders, and cross-cultural missionaries.
