I am Radarlyn A. Vallejera of BMA Bible College in Talisay, Philippines. I have had the privilege of being educated and trained in the ways of the Lord. I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in religious education in 1995 and was subsequently sponsored by the college to pursue my degree in music education at Silliman University in Dumaguete, Philippines.

“The influence of these two lives for God will live on. Their work in far-off Formosa (Taiwan) will never be finished. Not only did they give their hearts to the cause of foreign missions, but they gave their very lives on the field itself.They have been the means for reaching the lost for Christ. Only time will tell and eternity will reveal how many people are saved as a result of their witnessing.”

The churches and missions of Central America and the Caribbean face unique challenges as they labor to be effective in their evangelistic efforts, church planting, and discipleship of new believers. The region is known for its extreme weather, repressive governments and  poverty level. BMA Global has had a missions presence in this area for an entire generation, but in almost every country, American missionaries have handed off leadership responsibilities to national pastors and leaders.

We came to Queretaro, Mexico, five years ago to plant a church. We decided to move to the growing metropolis because BMA Mexico does not have a gospel presence in the state of Queretaro. Upon arriving, our family focused on meeting and sharing the gospel with the unchurched.
