Nearly one thousand leaders from Ecuador, Colombia and Venezuela gathered in their respective countries as National Iberoamerica conferences sparked a renewed priority for evangelism and holiness. In addition to spending much time at the altar, people of all ages received practical training during various ministry workshops. General superintendent James H. Diehl, South America regional director Christian Sarmiento and field strategy coordinator Dwight Rich spoke at each event. The national conferences concluded with ordination services where Diehl ordained seven new pastors, including two indigenous pastors from Ecuador. (Nazarene Communications Network)
