The Latham Family

About me

We are missionaries living in Manaus, Amazon, Brazil. We've been here since April 2001, and we absolutely love it! We have a website, www.lathamministry.org, which has been around for years and has a bit more info on our family and our ministry.

My work

We believe in evangelizing the lost, discipling believers, and mobilizing them to plant new churches. About two years ago God gave us a vision to begin a new ministry, Guerreiros de Deus, which utilizes sports to accomplish the above-mentioned tasks. We are also planting our third, and will use the sports ministry to fill our church with people who don't know the saving love of Jesus... yet. We love what we do!
