This is the question that motivates the missionary team we were just with in Southern Mexico.
They talk of one thousand unreached villages around them where people are steeped in superstitions and fears. When a family member dies, relatives will spend months at the gravesite repeating rote prayers believing that this is the way the deceased will pass into heaven.
Through medical clinics, work programs, and church planting, this team is working to see hundreds of these villages impacted with the same message that changed your life and mine.
It takes sacrifice! Each of these team members has left family and friends to live in another culture and spend years learning Spanish in order to take the gospel to people in need.
We asked fifty-two year old Rita what is the most challenging part about her life. She replied, “Not getting to see my adult daughters but once a year.”
You, with us, make a huge difference! As we equip and encourage these leaders they are able to press through the challenges they face so they can continue taking the transforming message of Jesus’ life to others. A recent email, received after we returned from working with these leaders in Mexico, expresses their appreciation: “Thanks so much for taking the time to hang out with us, get into what God is doing here and providing the MUCH NEEDED encouragement and direction we needed.”
