Our Missions Values
Our philosophy of foreign missions centers on establishing and maintaining relationships with partner churches in the countries to which we send teams. We currently partner with Iglesia Betania de la Reforma in Cali, Vida En Su Palabra in Riohacha, Iglesia Reformada Nación de Dios in Cartagena, as well as others throughout Colombia. Each year, we send teams to support the evangelistic efforts of these churches and associated congregations in the area.
In addition, we support the work of the Nueva Providencia Biblical Institute near Guarne, a school that equips men to work as pastors and missionaries throughout Latin America.
Iglesia Betania de la Reforma Cali
(Bethany Reformed Church of Cali)
In 2014, we began a partnership with a network of reformed churches in Cali, Colombia. In addition to direct financial support, Grace Fellowship sends teams to Cali to assist these churches in their evangelistic efforts (in schools, parks, and on the streets), to encourage the believers, and to provide training and resources.

Iglesia Reformada Nación de Dios (Nation of God Reformed Church)—Cartagena
Grace Fellowship began a partnership with this church in 2019 having known its current pastors, José Ángel Ramírez and Eddie Cantillo over several years. This church of 130± members is located in Cartagena, Colombia. In addition to his work with the church, Pastor José also serves as the area coordinator for Seminario Reformado Latinoamericano, a seminary dedicated to the formation of trained leaders in the Reformed churches across Latin America.
José and his wife, Lizeth have two children, Jeremías and Belén.
Eduardo Fergusson
Grace Fellowship has worked with Eduardo Fergusson in missions for many years and also partnered with Iglesia Vida en su Palabra where he served as co-Pastor. Recently, Eduardo moved his family to Wake Forest, NC to pursue a seminary education and to receive enhanced care for his special-needs son.
