Christ for Latin America

Steddom Fund

The Lord brought me and my family to Minneapolis in the fall of 2017 to start my Master of Divinity degree at Bethlehem College and Seminary. This was possible because of the generosity of many of you who support the Alex Steddom International Student Fund, of which I was a recipient.

After my graduation in May of 2021, it was clear to me that the Lord was calling me to serve at Bethlehem Baptist Church Downtown for a season, and since then, I have been serving as Pastoral Resident for Worship and Hispanic Ministry. It has been a joy to lead our church family in worship, and also to minister to the profound need for Christ-centered teaching among the Latin community in the Twin Cities.

The Lord has also allowed me to continue in contact with pastors and churches in El Salvador with a desire to continue to spread a passion for the supremacy of God there and in the rest of Latin America. In July of 2022, God allowed me and my family to make a trip back home, and we had a sweet time with family and friends that we love and miss. We also visited some of these churches where I had the opportunity to preach and give a worship seminar. There are many ways in which we hope to continue to partner with these dear churches in El Salvador, so, please pray with me for much fruit for the Glory of God. Thank you so much for your prayers and support all these years, may the grace and peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.

In Christ,
