Church Planting Missionaries to Chile


Our passion is to preach Christ and to see His name gloried in Chile and around the world. With that purpose rmly in our hearts, we planted Iglesia Bautista Fe (Faith Baptist Church) in 2005 in Santiago, Chile. Santiago is a city of more than 7 million souls that need Christ. There are literally dozens of communities with no gospel preaching church. Millions live today in this metropolis city without Christ. WIth Gods help, we are endeavoring to plant Biblepreaching, indigenous, local, Baptist churches throughout Santiago, Chile, and all the world. We can reach the world through its key cities, one person at a time.

About our family


Jasons Testimony
Though I was raised in a pastors home, I did not accepted Christ as my Savior until the age of sixteen. During the following two years I grew in my faith. At the age of 18, I knew God was clearly calling me into the ministry. During the summer before my freshman year at Crown College, I visited the mission eld for the rst time. That month in Mexico sealed Gods leading to foreign missions and planted a love for the Spanish Savior. I was baptized the next Sunday and was excited about my new beginning. But due to a number of circumstances, I did not attend church, read my Bible, or grow in Christ. Five years after my conversion, I surrendered my life to Christ and began living completely for Him. Several months after that decision, in a missions conference in our local church, God gave me a desire to serve Him in foreign missions. While in college, I took missions trips to Ghana, Peru, and Chile. ______________________

Loris Testimony
Unlike Jason, I was not raised in a Christian home. At the age of 14, I attended church for the rst time where my uncle serves as pastor. After the church service, my aunt shared the Gospel with me and I accepted Christ as my personal

Our Ministry
After spending two years learning the language and culture in Peru, the Holts arrived to Santiago, Chile in early 2005 to began in the ministry. Church planting Shortly after arriving, they made plans to launch Faith Baptist Church. What started with a Bible study with a lady and her two children, has now grown to a thriving autonomous congregation of well over 150 people. In 2010, with Chilean pastors we had trained from the rst church, we planted two more churches. It is thrilling to see new believers grow to maturity and strive to reach their own people with the gospel.

Chile Baptist College As men surrendered to preach, we quickly saw the need to prepare them for the ministry. In 2009, we started the Chile Baptist College to train young men and women for the work. Currently, we have 8 men preparing full-time for the ministry. The young men are taking 16 hours of classes a week in the mornings while gaining practical experience in the evenings soul-winning, discipling, preaching, and teaching. All three of the churches are being pastored by one of the men we trained. Future Ministry In the spring of 2012 we will be returning to Chile. We pray that God will allow us continue to prepare people for the ministry and to start multiple churches.

Recommendations
Jason and Lori Holt are two of the finest people that I know. I have the privilege of being their pastor! I have worked with Jason both as a student in Peru, and then watched God greatly use him in Chile. They have served as missionaries nearly 10 years now! Jason is a man of character. He is hard working, diligent, faithful, and hungry to be used of God. Jason not only has these characteristics, but we have seen God greatly use him in Chile. God has allowed them to start several churches now and train several leaders, pastors, and future pastors. I hope that you will prayerfully consider having Jason in your church and then supporting this very needy ministry.

AUSTIN GARDNER

I know that Jason will be a blessing to you and your church when he presents the work. God is already using their family, and you will reap a great harvest and many spiritual rewards for supporting a family like the Holts. Thank you for whatever help you can give Jason as he continues this great work in Santiago, Chile. I am honored to be their pastor and to serve God with them. If you have any further questions about them, their character, their dedication, their preparation, or service please feel free to give me a call.

I have personally known Jason Holt and his family for many years. I can highly recommend him as a great Man of God, Church Planter, and Soul-winner, with a heart for people.

Man
We believe that all men by nature, choice, and practice are sinners, but that God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. We believe, therefore, that those who repent of their sins and by faith receive Christ as Savior will rejoice forever in Gods presence, and those who refuse to receive Christ as Lord and Savior will be forever separated from God.

Salvation
We believe salvation involves the redemption of the whole man, and is offered freely to all who accept Jesus Christ as Savior, who by His own blood obtained eternal redemption for the believer. In its broadest sense salvation includes regeneration, justi?ication, sancti?ication, and glori?ication. There is no salvation apart from personal faith in Jesus Christ as Lord.
