Continuing Steady in Challenging Times

The El Ancla church plant team continues to be present in the unchurched El Mirador neighborhood.  Community outreach events are being put on hold for a while due to the Covid-19 precautions.  Life Groups will be continuing online rather than in person.  This is an unprecedented time for all of us, especially a new church plant that is starting to be known in the neighborhood.  Please continue to pray for the leadership as they navigate a difficult situation.  

The church plant is still in need of funds to reach its neighbors.  Please consider how God is calling you to participate in transforming life with the hope of Christ.

Our IMPACTO Latino team has been working hard to better communicate what we do.  We've been refining our message as well as our vision for training and empowering church planters who plant churches that transform lives and communities.  Eric and Dee Duggins will be traveling to the United States in a few months to visit churches, individuales, and organizations to share this important mission.  If you'd like to find out more about how you can be a part of life transformation in Latin America, contact Eric Duggins (eduggins@newinternational.org)

Here in Mexico we're staying connected to the news and watching how things are affecting our dear friends and family in the United States.  We seem to be a week or two behind in the spread of Covid-19.  Classes were cancelled this week until April 20 for all public and private schools.  Employers are allowing and encouraging people to work from home.  People are encouraged to stay at home and practice social distancing. 

We are keeping informed with official government recommendations and as of today. We have been monitoring it in order to make wise decisions for Iglesia Cristiana La Viña.  The Management Team and elders of La Viña decided on Tuesday afternoon to change our cell groups to a digital format and the Sunday celebration will be streamed on facebook. We want to protect the most vulnerable in the congregation and the community in general.  Pray for our staff as we make the necessary changes to do this well.  El Ancla church plant has transitioned its Life Groups to an online format as well.

​As you pray for your community, please also pray for Mexico as it faces this public health crisis.
