They have done trips to neighboring countries with as many as 500 youth evangelizing. . .
Since I've arrived in El Salvador, the new team I'm on (Check out Team Courageous Love!) has been tasked a new mission — to find more contacts for the World Race. The premise is simple — there are a lot of missionaries, pastors, and other people in El Salvador that could use support that AIM simply hasn't made a connection with yet. There are also a lot of World Racers to provide that support. So Courageous Love has been given the privilege of taking month off of the typical work of supporting a given contact to find other ministries that can use support. It's a month of internet searches, e-mails, phone calls, church visits, coffee and lunch meetings, and word-of-mouth networking. Over the course of the month, the team will be taking time to highlight many (if not all) of the contacts we meet.
So, without further ado, meet Don and Terri Triplett. Having been missionaries to El Salvador for an Incredible 25 years, Don and Terri are two people who are a great example of what it looks like to give your life toward advancing the Kingdom of God. Don and Terri have Three daughters, two of which were born in El Salvador, and are now all living as missionaries across the world. Don has been a missionary for most of his life, and now at 63, still plans to do it for at least another 8 years before retiring
The ministry they started, King's Castle, or Castillo del Rey as it's called in Spanish, is a ministry that focuses on training up youth in the ways of evangelism. One of the many events they hold is a massive "invasion" of young people sharing the gospel. They have done trips to neighboring countries with as many as 500 youth evangelizing, and are planning another soon at as many as 1,200 young people.
Over the course of the years, something about their ministry has caught fire. Kings Castle today has locations in 24 countries, and may continue growing beyond. Kings Castle hosts 2 month summer internships, 6 week "World Warrors" for teens, and an 11 month program called Last Harvest Master's Commission. All involve time spent training, and time traveling to other countries to spread the gospel. If you or someone you know is interested in a missions trip with Kings Castle, contact the Tripletts at [email protected] or visit their website at www.kingscastle.org
