About ALMA

ALMA is a missionary training school located on a beautiful, 30 acre campus in Paraguay. ALMA is working to fulfill the vision of Richard and Eloise Gwinn. The Gwinns are a missionary couple from the USA who received a vision to train and send missionaries from Latin America to the unreached parts of the world. Richard has gone to be with the Lord, but his vision is now a reality.

Experiences at our schools

We experienced a powerful time in the presence of God during Altar Week. The Lord spoke to each student about different aspects of their lives which He wanted to transform. Our students eagerly listened to where God would take them in the coming years, and what their ministry would be like.
