The United Andean Indian Mission (UAIM), was an ecumenical and interdenominational protestant mission, formed in the United States of America in 1946 with the purpose of working among the indigenous peoples in Ecuador, South America. The UAIM was created under the sponsorship of the Committee on Cooperation in Latin America, a multi-denominational agency that served as an umbrella organisation for all liberal protestantant missions in the region.


"'''Náttúra'''" is a song written and recorded by [[Iceland]]ic singer [[Björk]]. The track will be released as a single promoting the protection of the [[Iceland|Icelandic environment]].
The constituent churches and denominations of the UAIM were: the [[Presbyterian Church in the United States]] (Southern), the [[United Presbyterian Church in the United States of America]] (Northern), the [[Evangelical and Reformed Church]], and the [[Evangelical United Brethren Church]].

In 1965, its congregations and parishes merged with those planted by missionaries of the [[Church of the Brethren]], to form the United Evangelical Church of Ecuador (Iglesia Evangélica Unida del Ecuador or IEUE), which changed recently its name to United Evangelical Methodist Church of Ecuador.


At the time of the merger, the participating churches in the UAIM were: the [[United Methodist Church]], the [[Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.)]], the [[United Church of Christ]] and the [[Disciples of Christ]] (the last two through their joint "Global Ministries").
