Through Acts 29, we have rich relationships with three church planting families residing in Guatemala:
Mitch, Amanda & Lucas (Los Chilitos)
Cayetano & Vilma (Los Chilitos)
Guinder & Noemi (Guatemala City)
Our global efforts aim to establish and strengthen trusted local churches with indigenous leadership through mutual, long-term, sustainable partnerships.

More on Los Chilitos & Guatemala
Through the Acts 29 Rural Collective, we’ve come alongside Pastor Mitch Munoz and his wife, Amanda, as they plant a church in rural Guatemala. A little over an hour south of Guatemala City, men and women in the village of Los Chilitos began responding to the gospel, and Iglesia Evangélica Cristo Redentor (Christ the Redeemer Evangelical Church) was planted. Cayetano, a native of Los Chilitos and one of those who responded to the gospel, is now helping lead the church.
Local churches in the world!
The Village is part of Acts 29, an organization and global network of churches bound together by relationship, theology, and church planting. The network is all about more and better churches, striving to catalyze a movement of effective and multiplying churches worldwide. As of January 2024, over 700 churches in 47 different countries belong to the network. This shows up through The Village in a number of ways: a culture of multiplying (leaders, groups, churches, etc.), a kingdom mindset towards our relationships with other local churches, and relationships with church planters in Guatemala and elsewhere.
While it’s not a denomination, Acts 29 is a theologically-driven, gospel-centered network that stands in the tradition of historic evangelical confessionalism, affirming the Lausanne Covenant and embracing a reformed view of salvation. Even though it encompasses churches of various denominations, churches in the network are committed to the following five theological distinctives:
Gospel centrality in all of life
The sovereign grace of God in saving sinners
The work of the Holy Spirit for life and ministry
The equality of men and women and the principle of male headship
The local church as God’s primary mission strategy
