Step into the legacy of our founders, Joseph and Mabel Davis, whose journey to South America began in 1914. They were just like us – ordinary, imperfect people redeemed by God. Their obedience led them to South America, not because of their own worthiness, but because of Christ’s. They were passionate about sharing Jesus and seeing real change in individuals and communities.
Here at SAM, we’re not looking for you to fit into a mold or be perfect. Instead, we believe that God uses all kinds of uniquely gifted people to share the Gospel in traditional and creative ways. Whether you’re still figuring things out or ready to dive in headfirst, let’s explore the ways you can make a difference through South America Mission. Together, we’ll uncover the place for you to impact lives and expand the Kingdom of God.
