Janell’s Birthday

Janell’s birthday was last Saturday, and we had some friends over to eat cake that Ben helped her make. Here’s what we sing in Mexico at church before you eat the cake.

Training Trainers

Randy Smith from Youth Ministry International came to Mexico last weekend to meet with various Seminaries to talk about a new Master’s program we are starting to train youth ministry professors. These professors will then start youth ministry programs at their Seminaries.

Despite horrible traffic, the meetings went well. If all goes well we will begin the program sometime next year, and at the end of the program there will be at least 4 youth ministry programs at Seminaries throughout Mexico.

Here are some pictures we took of the meetings.

Youth Ministry Forum in December


This December 3, we will be hosting the first ever Youth Ministry Forum at the Mexican Baptist Theological Seminary.

The idea is to help the local church dialogue about the issues facing us as we seek to interact with young people and reach their culture. Today we had a meeting to focus on the topic and help us plan the event so that it will benefit those who attend.

Please be in prayer for this event. I hope it leads to many good discussions on how we should go about reaching and discipling young people in Mexico.
