The Timothy Center has teamed with San Geronimo outside the Uruguayan capital of Montevideo.  The project is a 20-acre leadership training, resource and coaching center on the coast 40 minutes outside of Montevideo. Our mission is to join Christ in reconciling a lost world to God through spiritual inspiration, social innovation, and multiplication of Christ-centered leaders and communities of faith among the global-emerging cultures in Uruguay, the Southern Cone region, and throughout Latin America. Located halfway to the South American resort mecca of Punta del Este, San Geronimo sits on a hilltop in the shadow of the Uruguayan sierras overlooking the sea just minutes off the coastal highway.

Inspiration

We are networked with thousands of non-believers in Montevideo who are eager to grow personally and who are attracted to open dialogue about Jesus. For them, San Geronimo is a creative safe-haven led by Christ-followers who love them unconditionally and who they trust enough to invite into their own journey. <

Innovation

Among our community are people with brilliant ideas that can make lasting positive change in the areas of personal faith, social fairness, creation care, and material poverty. At San Geronimo, they can brainstorm, research, and network with experts from across the world in theological education, commerce, development, and other areas as the seeds of ideas germinate and begin to grow. Church leaders and their teams also gain the tools to engage culture, the courage to try new things, and the clarity to know the essentials they need to hold on to. For these people, San Geronimo is part Research and Development, part nursery for new dreams.

Multiplication

Inspiration and innovation spread beyond one center on a hilltop. Our vision is for an ever-expanding network of practitioners of another way of living the Church. We see a grace-filled grassroots movement in which small companies of men and women engage their neighborhoods and societies spiritually and socially, and that Jesus, through them, would seek and save that which was lost on every corner of the nation and beyond.
