Anne Langhorne
Having grown up in Miami, a cultural melting pot rich with Latin American influence, Anne was drawn to South America. She heard about the MTW Lima team through Amanda and Jeremy, who are family friends. After much prayer and consideration she decided to take a semester off of school to live in Lima and learn from the community here. Anne was raised by two Christian parents, Trent and Richard Langhorne, and is an only child- excepting her dog, Astro. She came to know Jesus as her Savior at a young age in Sunday school at her church, but committed herself to a personal, lifelong relationship with Him while at a Camp Timberline in Colorado in 5th grade. She continued to go to camp every summer, as this was a special place marking the beginning of her spiritual journey, and eventually returned to be a counselor once in college. After graduating from Westminster Christian School in Miami, Anne decided to go to Baylor and is now studying Philosophy and Writing. She hopes to use her gifts as a writer to inform the Church of suffering all over the world and to animate those in the Church to act. Anne will be a part of the Lima New City Team until December, working with the team in the Church and volunteering at local missions to street kids and at risk teen girls.
Armando Becerra
Raised in a non-Christian home with his four sisters, Armando was the first one in his family to receive our Lord Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Savior. Living in McAllen, Texas Armando’s transformation began. His parents decided to move to Flowery Branch, Georgia where Armando saw the true meaning of Love. Armando started attending Chestnut Mountain Presbyterian Church in 2004 and shortly later that year he came to know the Lord Jesus Christ. With the Lord working through Armando, his family also came to the Lord! CMPC has a heart full of passion for missions and a huge love for people all around the world. This love was transferred to Armando. The Lord has used this amazing church in Armando’s life and has given him a passionate love for missions!

Anne Langhorne discovered a passion for working with the poor and at-risk children while living in Waco, Texas and attending Baylor University. As the 19th poorest city in the US, Waco provided many opportunities for ministry to the homeless and children living below the poverty line. As she worked with kids in the projects, she developed an interest in kids at-risk in the rest of the world.
Armando Becerra’s missionary voyage began when God our Lord came into his heart and transformed not only his heart but also his whole life. On Armando’s first mission journey to Amauta and Huaycan, Peru set the mark to his present-day status. These two cities are on the outskirts of Lima, the capital of Peru. The experiences that took place on this mission journey, children running around in slums, living in shacks, children not being cared for, were all factors of life that God used to guide and influence him to missions in the developing world.
