Each spring, our adults, children, youth, singles, couples, and even a few senior adults have traveled across the border to Mexico to a place much different than home. It is a place of need. It is a place where people long to know the blessings of having Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. There is a great need for churches that can effectively reach their communities with the Gospel. The resources to accomplish this mission are lacking among the churches that are currently located around these communities. As the Mexican people move closer to the borders to seek financial prosperity and opportunity, the need becomes even greater.

     For several years, we have partnered with Iglesia Bautista El Divino Salvador, located in Matamoros, to spread the Gospel through Vacation Bible Schools, Pastor’s Conferences and the showing of the Jesus Film. Our ministry also consists of a team of men that repair, refurbish and construct new churches.

     Recently, we have begun to partner with an Hispanic Pastor to reach Rio Bravo, a city of 500,000 that reports only about 150 attending evangelical churches. This partnership began in 2005 and will continue.

    When families join together in the great commission, great things happen. Families take part in laying up treasures in heaven… “where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in or steal; for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also (Matthew 6:20-21).

     Families begin to resemble the purpose of the family of God by knowing God and making Him known. There is nothing that compares with individuals and families taking part with God in His work. With joy, we will continue to take God’s redemptive message from our families to the nations!
