Origins
In 1996 Chilean church planter Luis Muñoz was sent to Uruguay to establish the Free Methodist Church. After one year of studying at a missions school in Montevideo, Luis began canvassing the city and selected a target neighborhood. Uruguay is known as the most secular of all Latin American countries because it separated the church from the state decades ago. This is unique in Latin America. Present Ministries
More than half of the population lives in the capital city of Montevideo. A group of energetic young adults from Durazno are reaching out to start preaching points in neighboring towns. Ricardo Guerrero was appointed District Leader in 2008; he also leads the mission district in neighboring Argentina. Learn more about Uruguay
