Transforming Lives & Communities

Mexico

With successful middle class church plants thriving in southwestern and northwestern Mexico City, we began ministry in The Eagles (las Aguilas) neighborhood – a working poor community that used to be a dump. The first worship service was April 23, 2006, an exciting Sunday for the congregation now known as Iglesia Cristiana las Aguilas. Along with the church plant, Mexican leaders and missionaries have established a community center for las Aguilas that will provide adult education classes, a homework club, English class, a class for first-time adult readers, seminars, conferences, and much more.

Comunidad Cristiana El Camino (The Way Christian Community), a young, growing church on the south side of Mexico City, is working toward being totally Mexican led and supported.

In Pachuca, a city of one million an hour northeast of Mexico City, our community center called CLAVE provides services to the urban poor of the Cubitos and La Raza community. We offer English classes, computer assistance, other tutorial help, health classes, and above all endeavor to bring people to faith in Christ. In 2009, a new church named New Life was launched through CLAVE, specifically for the residents of Cubitos and La Raza.

Missionaries are locating in areas of Mexico that CMF has never entered before to begin new church-planting efforts. Community Health Evangelism programs are being initiated in several communities as a holistic ministry approach and sharing of the Gospel.

Called El Pozo (The Well), our Globalscope campus ministry in Puebla provides community for students so they will develop a relationship with Jesus Christ and grow in their faith. At the campus house named la casa verde (the green house), la UDLA students and others in Puebla come to hang out or join the Tuesday night dinner and Bible study … or any number of activities planned just for them. You’ll also find exchange students from US universities making friends on campus and joining in the activities at la casa verde.
