Daniel is currently the pastor at their church ‘La Resurrección’ de Gómez Carreño. He is trying to encourage full participation of its members to work together to reach their community, discipling new believers and encouraging evangelism as well as seeking to serve the needs of those around them. Daniel also coordinates the region’s lay training biblical courses and teaches at the Anglican seminary in Santiago.

Tim Curtis is a CMS mission partner who has been serving in Paraguay since the 1980s in the ‘inhospitable’ rural Chaco area. Tim’s first major project was to oversee the translation of the New Testament into Enxet, the language of a tribal group first evangelised in the late 19th century. The book was launched and presented to the Enxet church in 1997. Then in 2003 Tim along with Enxet colleagues began to translate the Old Testament. Eight to 10 years are considered necessary to complete this monumental task which will give the Enxets the written Word of God in its entirety.
