Core offering

Unión de las Asambleas de Dios is a Pentecostal Christian denomination that organizes worship, pastoral care, and community ministries through a network of more than 1,000 local churches across Argentina. It provides theological training and minister credentialing via three regional biblical institutes (IBP, IBM, IBRP) and an extension education program (IETE), coordinates church planting campaigns and national evangelism, and operates specialized ministries for children, youth, men, women, and university students.

Product overview

Unión de las Asambleas de Dios is a Pentecostal Christian denomination operating as a religious institution rather than a technology company. Its offerings consist of ecclesiastical programs, theological education, and community ministries delivered through a network of biblical institutes (IBRP, Instituto Bíblico Mediterráneo, Instituto Bíblico Patagónico), the Department of Christian Education (DEC), church planting initiatives, and various specialized ministries targeting youth, children, students, and women. Digital platforms include a church locator system (Buscador de Iglesias) and a minister credential management system (Sistema de Ministros UAD). The organization spans 9 geographic regions across Argentina with a national council structure.

Others

• World Assemblies of God Fellowship: UAD's global parent fellowship covering 176 countries and 30M+ members. Not a competitor but the umbrella governance and credentialing authority that defines UAD's doctrinal alignment and international connections.
• Confraternidad Evangélica Pentecostal (CEP): National Argentine fellowship of Pentecostal denominations that UAD belongs to. Functions as an inter-denominational coordination body, making it adjacent to UAD's structure and a direct comparable for ecumenical governance.
• Alianza Cristiana de Iglesias Evangélicas de la República Argentina (ACIERA): National evangelical church alliance representing UAD and other denominations in public affairs. A partner/allied body rather than a competitor, but comparable as a national-scale religious organization operating in Argentina.

Broad incumbents

• Iglesia Evangélica del Río de la Plata (IERP): Argentine Reformed/Evangelical denomination with national presence, theological seminary (ISEDET), and historical roots in the region. Comparable scale and structure to UAD within the broader Argentine ecumenical landscape.
• Convención Evangélica Bautista del Río de la Plata: Long-established Argentine evangelical denomination (Baptist tradition) with a national structure of churches, theological education, and affiliated ministries. Comparable as a similarly scaled Argentine religious organization operating under Personería Jurídica, but with different doctrinal roots.

Direct peers

• Convención de las Asambleas de Dios del Perú: Peru's national Assemblies of God convention — same global AG family, same Pentecostal doctrine, same federation structure of churches and biblical institutes across the country. Directly comparable on governance model, credentialing system, and church-planting methodology.
• Convención Nacional de las Asambleas de Dios de México: Mexico's national Assemblies of God body — sister denomination in the same global AG fellowship, with comparable network of churches, institutes, and missionary departments across a Spanish-speaking Latin American market.

Regional players

• Concilio de las Asambleas de Dios de Bolivia: Bolivian national AG council — same denominational family but operating in a different country with different regulatory and demographic conditions. Comparable governance and credentialing model.
