Founded by missionaries from the United States, the Iglesia Metodista de Chile became autonomous in 1969. Today, it consists of 9,882 members across 90 congregations.
This church has a powerful legacy of “integral mission,” maintaining a strong focus on education, social justice, and service.
Notably, a vibrant Pentecostal movement grew out of this Methodist witness beginning in 1909, and it continues to shape the spiritual landscape of the country today.
In times of social and political change, Methodist congregations in Chile remain committed to sharing the gospel through compassionate and courageous ministry.
Gracious God, we thank You for the diverse ways Your Spirit moves. Bless the Methodist Church in Chile and their leaders, strengthen their congregations, and deepen their witness. May Your Spirit continue to guide them as they serve their communities and proclaim the gospel. May they continue to be bold witnesses of Your grace and love. Amen.
