In 2018, Saúl completed disciple multiplication training in El Salvador and immediately put it into practice. At the time, he was already serving as a chaplain in one of Honduras’ most dangerous youth detention centers—a place filled with members of the country’s deadliest gangs.

But the training gave him a new strategy and vision.

Together with his wife Elena, Saúl began organizing DMM (Disciple-Making Movement) trainings in towns and cities across Honduras. His goal: to equip others to multiply disciples and reach places most churches overlook.

A few years ago, Saúl started training pastors and volunteers in chaplaincy ministry. Through this program, they receive credentials to share the Gospel in hospitals, schools, prisons, and even police stations.

In a recent message to Dave, a Biglife leader in Latin America, Saúl wrote: “We continue working in many areas. Right now, more than 8,000 students in public schools are hearing the Gospel each week.”

In El Carmen, Saúl’s team continues to form disciples through three-thirds groups, helping people live out their faith in community. At the same time, they run vocational training programs for young inmates, offering skills and hope for a future beyond prison walls.

What began with a simple training has now grown into a wide-reaching movement—one that touches schools, prisons, churches, and entire communities across Honduras.

This is a true story. Some details may have been edited to protect identities.
