Hispanics play an important role in the world missions strategy of Southern Baptists in South America, Jerry Rankin, president of the International Mission Board, told more than 100 pastors and leaders at a June 9 luncheon prior to the Southern Baptist Convention annual meeting in Indianapolis.
“I feel very much at home with people who speak Spanish,” said Rankin, who recently returned from a two-week trip into the Amazon basin of Peru and Ecuador.
Noting his concern about the “remaining lostness of our world and the urgency of reaching [the lost] with the Gospel,” Rankin urged the audience not to shy away from the Great Commission.”*
