Review for Latin American Indian Ministries, Pasadena, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have known Dale Kietzman and LAIM for many years, as associates and co-workers among the Amazonian tribal nations across the Amazon and lowland regions of South America. Dale and his team are not only competent and very experienced, they also have always demonstrated a high degree of integrity, passion, and critical understanding of ministry in cross cultural settings.

They've also demonstrated clear evidence of believing in and adhering to an overall strategy of empowerment of native peoples, which is vital to the spread of the Gospel and the strengthening of the indigenous church, throughout the region.

As the founder and President of Alteco (Amazon & Lowland Tribal Empowerment Coalition .. a band of 160+ agencies, churches, and other entities focused on empowering Amazon area indigenous leaders) I completely endorse and highly recommend LAIM and any ministry partnerships that can be forged with them. In fact, Dale is one of very few recipients of Alteco's "Amazon Pioneer Award" which honors veteran missionaries who have had massive impact on the Amazon region.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Provide them with further human and financial resources, to enable them to broaden their impact and to enhance their present partnerships in Latin America.
