Did you know that there are still people in the Amazon that have little or no knowledge of Jesus Christ?
We are the Mortimers, four generations of a missionary family serving in Iquitos, Peru. Our Mission takes us deep into the Amazon Jungle seeking out souls that have little or no knowledge of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Our desire is that they may hear the Good News and come into a relationship with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Please take a few minutes to learn about each of our families and how we have been following God’s call on our lives to share His Love and His Word with others.
Please consider partnering with us in our quest for souls in the Mighty Amazon. Darkness and witchcraft have held these people bound for generations. Let’s make a difference in the lives that many have forgotten, impacting generations to come.
