The continent of South America takes up 15 percent of the entire surface of the Earth. Countries in the middle and south America are poor. Rich and educated people are living in the central part of cities, while poors and very poors and very very poor native south Americans-Indians are reside in the marginal area of cities without educational benefits. They are rarely received junior high education. UUMission is primarily concerned to poors as our Lord Jesus Christ preached the good news to the poors(Luke 7:11).
