Uruguay
We are convinced that no one should live or die without hearing and understanding the gospel of Jesus Christ in Uruguay and around the world. For this reason, we believe that God has called SIM missionaries to this country to be instruments who reach, train and equip new generations of Uruguayans for Jesus Christ.

Communities where Christ is least known
College-aged Uruguayans
Historically, Uruguay has been considered the most atheistic nation in the Americas, with nearly half the population identifying as “non-religious.” (This the highest percentage for any country in the Western Hemisphere.)
In the capital, Montevideo, where most of the population resides, entire neighbourhoods have no church presence. These neighbourhoods are home to various universities, with student bodies that have not heard the gospel living in nearby apartments.
As in traditionally religious nations, Uruguayan youth have begun to question their atheist upbringings and turn against the grain. Many young people have begun to reject the belief that the “natural” is all there is.
This new curiosity about spirituality means an increased interest in other faiths such as Mormonism (whose church membership has risen by 80 per cent in the past five years), Afro-Brazilian spiritism (the fastest growing religion in Uruguay) and New Age practices (which are syncretised into a startling number of people’s belief systems). However, it is also an unprecedented open door to proclaim Christ to this least-reached demographic.
Through church planting, leadership training and concerted efforts to pursue and mentor young people, the SIM Uruguay team continues to work in creative ways to see individuals find their hope in Jesus.
Prayers
