Royal Rangers International (RRI) held an historic conference in Florida, USA in February. In Spanish, the conference was called Seminario de Actualizacion Latinoamericano (SAL, which means salt). The purpose was to introduce new evangelistic program resources to the national Royal Rangers leaders in the Spanish-speaking world. Royal Rangers is one of the world’s largest and foremost Christian adventure-based mentoring programs. More than one hundred leaders from Spain, Italy, Mexico, Central and South America and the Caribbean attended. Reciting the first part of the Royal Rangers pledge, “With God’s help I will do my best to serve God,” the national leaders committed themselves “to an unprecedented effort of Ranger-evangelism.” As a group they set a goal to grow the ministry in Latin America and the Caribbean from forty-five thousand people to over 250,000 people within the next ten years.
