Baxter’s Mission

Baxter Institute is a Christian educational institution. Its sole purpose for existence is to prepare its students to become preachers, teachers, missionaries, and leaders among churches of Christ throughout the Spanish-speaking world. For over 50 years, Baxter Institute has provided ministerial training in a Latin American context.

Originally established in Mexico in 1964, Baxter was later moved to Honduras in 1978. Today there are over 700 graduates of Baxter’s residential program, ministers and families involved in a variety of ministry settings all across Latin America and in the U.S.

Baxter’s resident training program is a four-year, university-level, academic program. It is supplemented with weekend church ministry assignments and an annual evangelistic campaign. Together we are making a difference for now and eternity.
