God at Work in Mexico-5

Upon leaving the Pima’s we traversed back to Rio Chico for the night before driving back to Ciudad Juárez and El Paso the next day. It was an incredible blessing for me to be able to go on this trip. My picture of Mexico and the ministry down there will be forever changed.

The vision, heart, and ministry of Pastor Tomas is truly amazing. He works tirelessly spreading the gospel and training pastors.

Now at this point you might be thinking “well this is all fine and good, but what does it mean for me?” Let me encourage you in two ways:
  1. If you have never been on the Mexico trip, join the team going down this coming June. It will change your life.
  2. Maybe you can’t go. Pastor Tomas’s church in Warez supports all of these above mentioned ministries to the Indians. These ministries require constant funding and these funds are changing lives and generations. When you write a check you aren’t just sending money to some organization, these are REAL people with REAL needs, and REAL lives. This fact struck me anew. I had no idea of the ministries that are happening in the mountains of Mexico. So give and give generously. The Mexicans put us to shame when it comes to giving. Did you know they give 25-30 percent of their income? Wow. Pray about what God would have you give.
By sharing this brief overview of what God is doing in Mexico I pray you now have a better idea of the ministry that happens day after day, week after week, and month after month.

Go. Give. Pray. God is doing great things in the Copper Canyon.
