Did you know that the U.S. Census estimates that nearly 60 million Hispanic people live in the United States today—or roughly18.3 percent of the nation’s population? Moreover, the Cervantes Institute reports that there are 572 million people worldwide who speak Spanish, of which 477 million are native speakers.
No doubt, the opportunity to reach Spanish-speakers with vital Bible truths is unprecedented both in terms of scale and potential impact. Responding to this need, Amazing Facts International will soon launch a new website—Amazing Facts Latino—later this year, offering the ministry’s inspiring and Christ-centered content in Spanish!
Pastor Carlos Muñoz, a bilingual evangelist for the ministry and director of the Amazing Facts Center of Evangelism (AFCOE), is spearheading this crucial effort to reach all of God’s children. He says, “My Hispanic brethren are hungry to learn more about God’s Word and what lies ahead in these last days. The launch of Amazing Facts Latino will be a major advance for the ministry among a community numbering in the tens of millions worldwide.”

“God’s message is our mission,” explains Pastor Doug Batchelor, president of Amazing Facts. “Sharing the everlasting gospel with a world that’s fearful and in pain right now is our priority, and we need to reach ‘every nation, tribe, tongue, and people,’ as Revelation 14:6 proclaims. In launching Amazing Facts Latino, we hope to bring the same level of high-quality spiritual nutrition found on the English-language website to millions of native Spanish-speakers around the world—especially to those who need more materials to share the gospel in their communities.”
Seekers who visit the Amazing Facts Latino website will find much of the same resources available on our official site, along with special features for Spanish-speaking users. We are rapidly working on translating as many videos, articles, and other resources as the website debut approaches.
Moreover, the Amazing Facts Study Guides, a 27-lesson series that introduces students to key Bible doctrines and prophecies will also be available on the new website, along with popular sermon series presented by Pastor Doug and other Amazing Facts speakers.
We are so grateful for the support of our many partners in making Amazing Facts Latino available worldwide, and we ask for your prayers as this vital project moves forward!
