There are four churches located in the coastal city of Esmeraldas and three in the capital city of Quito, in the central part of Ecuador. Most of the churches started through outreach to children in partnership with International Child Care Ministries. Pastora Eunice Alvarez, a missionary from Mexico, has done an effective job of pastoring the church in the center of Quito and serving as district leader.
