[edit] History

The Smith family (John Jerry, Janice and their three children) felt called to Guayaquil. They moved there in 1985, started a little church in Urdesa, with the supplementary aim of establishing a foundation for the benefit of impoverished children. Gradually they accumulated the funds to buy a block of land, build a high school, auditorium and church (seating about 2000 people).
