We are weekly mentoring different churches in Latin America. This past week Luis was able to start the Global Focus process the another Amigos church in Metapan, El Salvador. This is a smaller church, that does not even have a pastor, but the leaders of the church decided they wanted to be a Global Focus church and impact the nations from their local church.
Yovanny our Venezuelan director was able to preach a Missional Church conference in Brazil in the Evangelical Church of Jardim Maringa. This is a church that Fabio, our Brazilian directoris mentoring, They were able to hear how God is mobilizing some of the poorest churches in Latin America, the churches of Venezuela, and how they are being mobilized and sending missionaries to the ends of the earth.
This past week I was able to continue the Global Focus process in the “Hermanos Libres” (Plymouth Brethren) church of Orizaba. These are churches that were started by missionaries that came from England to Mexico over 100 years ago, but they still have not sent missionaries to the nations yet. Today, their desire is to personally participate in Global Missions and send their own people to the nations! We had a wonder wonderful time with nearly 50 leaders from this church learning how to align the church around mission that God has given the local church.
This week Luis Marti and I are teaching in our Missional Church conference in Cd. Valles, Mexico with the Peregrinos Church (one of the oldest Wesleyan churches in Mexico.) Today this church is now sending their first missionaries to the mslms of Eastern Europe, and to Southeast Asia
We have nearly 50 pastors and leaders that have come to learn more about how Global Focus can help them mobilize their own churches. At the same time we are leading a school to help our new Global Focus facilitators learn how to better mobilize churches in Mexico with Global Focus.
