Local Leadership

Mercedes & Willie Malpartida

Mercedes and her son Willie are the directors of Kairos Ministries in Iquitos, Peru. Nearly 20 years ago, Noe & Mercedes Malpartida (Willie’s parents) launched Kairos. Since that time, they have been tirelessly building bridges in their community by providing quality education and care for vulnerable children, counseling and support to struggling families, and empowerment through the Family Business Program. Mercedes, a strong and passionate woman, alongside Willie, took up the reins of Kairos Ministries when Noe tragically passed away years ago. They are leading well and have an expansive vision for the future and how they can empower their community to flourish!
