| Sumario: | Taking into account the global and local challenges that we are going through, and from a theological‐historical perspective, the working hypothesis in this article is that the ecumenical movement (as part of missio Dei) helped to produce a scenario in 20th‐century Latin America that we could call "mission incarnated." This is argued using two historical examples: the interaction and mutual enrichment between Latin American liberation theology and the theology of the Wesleyan tradition; and the ecclesial example of the Methodist Church in Argentina. Finally, some theological and missionary challenges that stem from this history are discussed, being important for the ecumenical movement and the Christian faith communities in Latin America at this key point in time.
