Bendiciones!
My name is Yonchu Song and I will be returning to Ecuador this summer (2025) as a translator and to support the ongoing outreach to the Amazon region. It's been 15 years since I left "La Mitad del Mundo". I served in Ecuador with the Evangelical Covenant Church from 2002-2010 in collaboration with the Ecuadorian and Swedish Covenant Church. I was involved in teaching English, discipleship, youth and women's ministry and received American groups to support the work of the national church.
During my time in Ecuador, I reconnected with David Larry who is an old college friend and I hosted the first work group from Harvest.
I met my husband Ola Johansson who was working in the coast of Ecuador through the collaboration of the Swedish and Ecuadorian Church. He was involved community development, teaching metal welding and coordinating other sustainable projects. He also served in the Amazon region as a pastor and radio technician back in the 90s.
I am thankful for this opportunity to go back to Ecuador, a country that has enriched my life in so many ways. I look forward to seeing what God has in store for us this summer!
