More than twenty years ago, my family and I boarded a plane and left Cape Verde after twelve years of missionary service.

In the community of Las Flores, Nicaragua, God is building His church through the faithful ministry of ChangeMaker Evertz Rojas and his wife, JC, along with their young son, Luca.

My name is Gerson Orellana, and I have served in church planting and pastoral accompaniment across different contexts in Latin America, including Costa Rica, the Peruvian Andean highlands, and Panama.
