Since 1998, St. Matthew has been involved in mission work in Paraguay. Medical teams and construction teams travel to the South American country each year to help the Methodist Church of Paraguay reach people with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Throughout the entire country, you will find church buildings, parsonages, and camps that were built by people from St. Matthew. There are people in that nation whose very lives were saved by medical treatment from St. Matthew’s medical team. There are many today who know Jesus Christ because of the missionaries and mission work that the church supports.

Current Mission: 2011 Paraguay Medical Trip

Every year the people of St. Matthew send a team of medical professionals loaded with supplies to care for the local population in one of the poorest locations in Paraguay. Every person who receives medical treatment also has a chance to be prayed over and to receive Jesus. Our team not only shares the gospel but provides bibles to everyone who comes.

These capable doctors, pharmacists, nurses, dentists, optometrists, and chiropractors need your prayers. There are so many hurting people both physically and spiritually, and they want to reach as many people as possible for the Lord!
