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!
March 2024 Missions Letter
Salvation, Baptisms, and Weddings
We had a very busy February and we are grateful for how the Lord is working in the ministry. Samuel has been visiting Hope Baptist Church for a few weeks, after preaching a message on salvation, he called me the following day and we talked about the message. The following week he accepted Jesus as Savior! We also had four baptisms this month, two at Faith Baptist Church and two at Hope Baptist Church. We also had a very special day at Faith Baptist Church, Eric and Sofi got married on February 10, they met at the church, they got to know each other there and have served the Lord together in the music ministry. We are thrilled to see how God has brought them together! Please pray for them as they begin their a new life together!
We have another special wedding in March at Faith Baptist Church! Diego and Xoana met years ago but were recently saved, and they want to honor God with their lives, they will be getting married on March 15! We are excited for them! We also start back with the Bible College this month, the guys who are studying for the ministry are serving and directing specific ministries, they are faithful and continue to grown. God is at work at both Faith Baptist Church and Hope Baptist Church. Thank you for praying for the ministry God has given us!

February 2024 Missions Letter
We have spent months planning for 2024 at Faith Baptist Church. The leadership and I have met, prayed over the year, planned out the calendar, set forth the theme for the year, the preaching schedule, making sure that each man training for the ministry has opportunities to serve in the ministry, and to preach in special services throughout the year. With all of our planning and preparation, God gave us a new opportunity that has changed the course of 2024, and we are honored and excited! There is a church plant in Ezeiza, about 30 minutes from Faith Baptist Church that a missionary family planted a year and a half ago. The missionary family has recently resigned as missionaries and returned to the States. We were asked to take the church plant. After praying and receiving counsel from our Pastor, we have taken Hope Baptist Church. The church is very young and is a great opportunity to reach others in the area! We had a special Sunday night service in January, and we had the largest attendance in the history of the church! Please pray for Faith Baptist Church and Hope Baptist Church as we lead the ministries. This is an incredible opportunity to advance the Gospel of Jesus! We planned other things for 2024 and we are so thankful for how God has added to those plans to include our new church plant, Hope Baptist Church!
Serving Together,
Patrick, Leslie, Lily, Piper, Ivy, and Isla Henry

Quick Update: Decisions made at Camp
We had a wonderful time at camp with many decisions made. It was great to see how God worked in the hearts of the campers. We now have young men and women who are reading the Bible daily for the first time in their lives. God also worked in the hearts of campers about sharing their faith and we have already seen the results with evangelism training. I am so thankful to see how the Lord is at work! The highlight of camp was when a young man named Nahuel received Jesus as his Savior! It was a great camp!
Coming up…
- We have exciting news to share this Friday (you will receive an email with the news)!
- We will have two people baptized this Sunday evening.
- We have a wedding at Faith Baptist Church on February 10.
- We have two more people getting baptized on Sunday morning of February 11.
The Lord is at work and the devil is attacking, The Lord will win, we are humbled, grateful, and excited about the ministry that God has given us. We need your prayers!

Quick Update: Camp 2024
We started our annual summer camp yesterday and we are excited about it! We have just over 50 campers this year, and we are praying that the Lord is going to work in the heart of each person. This is a great time for dedication to the Lord, for a little rest, and for getting away from all of the things going on in life to seek the Lord among other brothers and sisters in Christ.
Please pray for our camp and for each camper, that God uses the preaching of His Word, and the discipleship times to guide each camper.
Serving Together,
Patrick, Leslie, Lily, Piper, Ivy, and Isla Henry
