Kyle and Claudia Zimmerman

Development & Outreach  

Children: Isaiah, Sarah, Abegail 

In 2007, Kyle and Claudia returned to Buenos Aires and La Misión Church, where Kyle had served for a period after college. Currently, the Zimmermans serve at La Mision’s Palermo campus, a suburban area, where they are both involved in teaching and evangelistic ministry. Kyle, a trained industrial engineer, is using those skills to teach carpentry and woodworking to young men living in shanty towns in the suburbs. These young men come to learn a trade, but many have said they stay to hear the gospel lessons Kyle shares with them. The inflation and economy in Argentina have begun to improve, however, there are many still in need. Their church is stepping in to help fill the hunger gap by serving 200 meals each Saturday. Kyle has been able to continue to expand his carpentry class to bring on new students, which has helped their families during difficult economic times. They are refining their carpentry skills while producing several products to sell locally and online.

• Pray for Kyle and Claudia as they use their home leave during the first quarter of 2026 to plan for the next season of ministry.
  
  
• Pray for them as they head to Uganda, where Kyle has been invited to do some consultant work at a large Christian school that wants to add vocational training.
