We are Dale and Patti Coad ministering to the Spanish Diaspora of the Caribbean in church planting, leadership development, and bible school training. Before this ministry, we served for 18 years as the LACC (ChildHope) directors for the Caribbean while living in the Dominican Republic and 13 years as the Caribbean Area Director. During our time in the Caribbean and the West Indies, our hearts were drawn to the growing class of migrants who have left their native countries because of poverty, persecution, or politics. Many of these groups come from the Spanish speaking countries of the Dominican Republic, Cuba, Venezuela and Colombia. They now live in English, Dutch, and French speaking countries in the Caribbean.
In their new adopted countries, for the most part, the groups are marginalized. By God’s grace, these migrants are finding each other and the non-believers who are hungry to hear about God’s Word. Our passion is to empower the new leadership in their zeal to reach others and to develop their leadership capacity as we dream about reaching more of the displaced groups of people waiting to hear the Good News of Jesus.
We presently have two Bible Schools in St. Kitts and Nevis. We have church building projects in St. Kitts and in Nassau. We have an ongoing youth center project in Bonaire. We love hosting teams when travel restrictions permit us.
