We are the Henry family. We have been serving Jesus as missionaries in Argentina since 2016. My wife Leslie and I have four beautiful daughters who serve the Lord alongside us. We are planting churches and training men to advance the Gospel in Argentina and around the world. It is not always easy, but God has been with us every step of our journey! He is so good to us! This blog is designed to take you on the journey with us. We have posts ranging from quick updates, to unique cultural norms and mores, to thoughts on world evangelism, to our monthly prayer letters. Our blog is updated often, be sure to check back and go on this journey with us!
May 2024 Missions Letter
April was a wonderful month of growth. Hope Baptist Church recently had the largest attended services in the church’s almost two year history! We also have been helping the Prater family set up as they will begin their language learning shortly. Emilee Coffee has been with us as an intern for almost three months and has progressed in the language and has been a blessing to Hope Baptist Church and to our family. Faith Baptist Church celebrated her 7th anniversary in April with a beautiful service led by Pastor Matías. April was a wonderful month in the ministry God has given us!
This month the ministry continues and we will be hosting guests who will be visiting as potential future missionaries. Our first visitors will be Pastor DeKoker and a young man from the church he pastors. We will be helping them survey two major cities, Buenos Aires and Córdoba. After their visit, will host a young lady, Julie, who recently graduated from Bible College. Julie is praying about where God would have her serve and is considering Argentina. On top of all of this the ministries of both Faith and Hope Baptist Churches continue advancing! We are in a very busy season and we are grateful that the Lord has given us these things to steward for His glory! Thank you for being a part of this ministry!
Serving Together,
Patrick, Leslie, Lily, Piper, Ivy, and Isla Henry

Quick Update: The Seventh Anniversary of Faith Baptist Church
Tomorrow is a special day for Faith Baptist Church, we will be celebrating it’s seventh anniversary! Pastor Matías and the church family has been planning for this special event, and we know it will be a wonderful day tomorrow! These events remind us to look back and see the goodness of God through the years. I think back on people who have been saved, baptized, and discipled at Faith Baptist Church, I think back to some who were members of the church, but have since passed away, and are in the presence of our Savior, I think back on the good times and the hard times through the years and I come to the precious conclusion that through it all God has been faithful and so good to us! We are excited about this special day! Please pray for Faith Baptist Church as they continue to push forward and for Pastor Matías has he helps guide the church!

Celebrating Anniversaries and Advancing the Gospel
We had a packed schedule in March, with the arrival of missionaries Robbie and Lauren Prater, who will be doing their language school and cultural acquisition with us, we also had another couple married at Faith Baptist Church, and we started the next semester of the Bible College with seven students! On March 25, we celebrated eight years in Argentina! God has been so good to us over the past eight years! We have seen people saved, baptized and discipled, we are seeing men trained for the ministry, God has been faithful through it all!
This month we will be celebrating the seventh anniversary of Faith Baptist Church in Lanús. Pastor Matías is doing a great job leading the church and we look forward to being a part of their anniversary service! We also are continuing the work at Hope Baptist Church, this month, we started a weekly outreach program and the Lord is honoring our efforts with first time visitors! We also began our small group Sunday School classes with two separate classes! One of the big projects we have taken on in both churches is to revamp our discipleship program, we have worked through everything and will now be implementing the new program, especially in Hope Baptist Church! Great things are going on at both churches, thank you for your faithful prayers and support!
