In February and March 2002, Oregon Disciples hosted our global mission partners, Victor and Violet Vaca (click here for pictures). The Vacas have worked for many years in Ecuador with a Christian organization called known as FEDICE. The Ecumenical Christian Foundation for Integrated Development and Training-Education (FEDICE) is a partner organization of the Division of Overseas Ministries/Global Ministries located in the South American country of Ecuador. FEDICE works with communities located in the mountain villages of Cotopaxi and Mababura Provinces that are popuilated by Andean Indian communities. FEDICE assists these communuities in the establishing and carrying out of locally based development projects. FEDICE also works with these rural mountain communities on issues of community health, traditional medicine, and education. FEDICE staff provide support to churches in these mountain communitites that request assistance in areas of Christian Education, pastoral care, and Bible Studies.
