IMPACTO Latino has years of experience as church planters in Mexico.  The IMPACTOnetwork is a catalyst for church planting that facilitates kingdom growth through the recruiting, training, and coaching of key church planters, as well as the funding of their church plants during the crucial first years.

MISSION
To take the Gospel to the people of Mexico by planting new, dynamic, self-sustaining, and self-multiplying churches to make disciples of Christ.

The vision is to plant new, dynamic, self-sustaining, and passionate urban churches around Mexico. The IMPACTO Latino team has based their new IMPACTOnetwork project on these principles:
  1. Multi-national teams
  2. Self-sustaining churches
  3. Living in community (small groups)
  4. Developing national leaders
  5. Self-multiplying
  6. Transforming urban communities
We see that in order to accomplish this vision, we have to multiply our efforts by identifying potential church planters and connecting them with a suitable team and resources that will spark a new church plant with vision, direction, and passion for sharing the Gospel. 

IMPACTO Latino accomplishes this purpose by planting worshipping churches that are committed to evangelize and disciple their communities.

IMPACTO Latino’s ministries may include any project to foster:
  • Evangelism
  • Discipleship
  • Pastoral Care
  • Leadership Development
  • Congregational Development of both Physical and Spiritual Needs
  • Community Development Needs


IMPACTO Latino may partner with any individual, congregation, mission or institution that fosters similar goals and purposes.
​
The purposes of IMPACTO Latino is fulfilled by supplying oversight, prayer, encouragement, and any additional ministries that the Board of Advisors deem possible considering the personnel and financial resources of IMPACTO Latino to empower the Missionaries and National Ministry Workers fulfill their ministry calling.

HISTORY
The missionaries of IMPACTO Latino have been involved in church planting in urban Mexico, in some cases for more than 30 years. The main focus was in the area of Pachuca, Hidalgo where churches were established based on the principles that IMPACTOnetwork is teaching new church planters.  These churches have become self-sustaining, dynamic, and self-multiplying. Their members are passionate about becoming disciple makers, and impacting their city for Christ.

IMPACTO Latino missionaries planted or provided consulting for the planting of:

New Hope Christian Church (1996)
Jubilee Christian Church (2007)
New Life Christian Church (2009)
Door to Heaven Christian Church (2015) 
Fortress Christian Church (2016)
Vineyard Christian Church (2018)
Anchor Christian Church (projected 2020)
 

John 4:35-38, in essence, says, we have been sent to harvest what others have planted.
​
IMPACTO Latino's current church planting project, theIMPACTOnetwork is a reflection of this Biblical passage as well as the years of church planting experience. For more than a century missionaries have invested their lives and resources in Mexico. There is now a renewed receptivity and a new generation is called and committed to reaching Mexico.

Our goal is to multiply these past efforts by recruiting, training, and sending church planting teams creating a church planting network in central Mexico. 

BELIEFS
We try not to be dogmatic about matters on which believers hold divergent views. Our core beliefs are centered in Christ and His message as supported by Scripture. More obscure doctrine, as well as controversial issues about which the Bible is silent, are left to believers to sort out on their own. On these issues we take no official/dogmatic position. What follows is a summary of what we believe:
  • We believe the Bible to be the only infallible, inspired, authoritative Word of God. As such it is our final authority for all matters of faith and Christian practice.
  • We believe there is only one God who is the Creator of all things, and that He is eternally existent in three persons (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) and that each possess the full attributes of Deity. We futher believe that all things are from Him, and through Him, and for His glory.
  • We believe in Jesus Christ who was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, performed miracles, and that His death on the cross is the only means through which we can be made right with God, that He bodily rose from the dead and ascended to the right hand of God, and that He will return again to earth in power and glory.
  • We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, who lives in each follower of Christ and who enables all of them to live God-honoring lives. God, the Spirit, is also at work in those outside of Christ to bring conviction of sin, righteousness and judgement to come.
  • We believe humans willfully sinned and as a result are lost and without hope apart from receiving Jesus Christ.
  • We believe forgiveness of sins is available only by the grace of God through the substitutionary death of Jesus Christ, and that this free gift of forgiveness is available to each person who places their faith in Jesus Christ, repents from the sin in their lives and gives testimony of their faith through Baptism.
  • We believe in the return of Jesus Christ to earth and the resurrection of the dead, that the eternal fate of each person will be pronounced, those forgiven will receive eternal life with God in heaven, and those not forgiven will endure eternal separation from God in hell.
  • We believe in the spiritual unity of the church on earth, consisting of all Christians everywhere. The church has as its primary calling to make disciples of all nations (peoples) as Jesus stated in Matthew 28:16-20 and thus fulfill its part of the covenant announced in Genesis 12:1-3 and consummated in Revelations 7:9-10.
