Walton, Ian & Heather

After going to Belize on a short-term mission trip in December 2018, God confirmed that this is where our family is to settle as missionaries. We left Timmins, Ontario Canada on September 4th and arrived in Belize City, Belize Central America on September 5th. We are so grateful that God has been our pillar of cloud by day and fire by night as it has been very evident that God has everything perfectly planned out. The key areas of ministry would include; gospel outreach, importing and distributing Bibles and tracts, Bible teaching/study, ladies groups, and practical help in a variety of areas.
