Moments, Members, and Miles in Mexico

IMPACTOnetwork's church planting residency program continues online.  It has been a challenge to translate some very hands on modules, like Dee Duggins' children's ministry class, into an online format but the team has risen to every challenge.  The students are growing in their knowledge of church planting and discipleship.  Church Planting Residents Tony and Jackie Moreno are taking the course and serving at Iglesia Cristiana El Ancla in preparation for starting a church on the Yucatan peninsula in 2022.  Tony says that the residency has challenged him to continue growing in all areas of his life and it has helped him realize how much he can do for the Kingdom by changing his mindset and certain habits.  He has been impacted by the genuine love that the team has for the lost and how working together lightens the workload and makes a greater impact.  Jackie commented that she no longer helps Tony with his ministry but that it has become her ministry as well. Please pray for Tony and Jackie as they continue preparing to plant a church.

Iglesia Cristiana La Viña has remained stable and is showing signs of growth even while being restricted in meeting.  The church continues with 2 Sunday celebrations allowing for more space and accommodating lower capacity gatherings.  At the end of February , La Viña concluded its "Successful Families" series with a Concert of Prayer.  It was a powerful time of worship and prayer where Pastor Gerardo and his wife Naty shared how God had transformed their marriage.  A "Conócenos" membership class was held recently and on March 14th, 4 people were introduced as new members of La Viña.  Later this month, the Life Groups will participate in a community service week to impact their neighborhoods.

We're excited about New International's Miles for Missions initiative.  We pray you will join us from anywhere in the world on May 22 as we cover 25,000 miles together - the number of miles around the earth - and raise $100,000 all in the name of Jesus and the advancement of Kingdom work globally.  Can you imagine, thousands of people collectively covering 25,000 miles in prayer, while supporting the sharing of the Gospel globally?

You can be part of the "Mexico Miles" team supporting the IMPACTOnetwork church planting project.  Find more information about Miles for Missions from New International CEO Jeff Metzger  HERE.
