I'm Here: Southern Mexico
by Boundless Community on 11/02/2009 at 11:03 AM
Greetings from Mexico!
This is a picture of me exploring some local ruins. I have been living in a small village in Southern Mexico for about a year now. The people can speak and understand some Spanish but when they are scared, confused, angry, or even just really happy they always switch to the Z. Language. I am working as part of a team to make Jesus Christ accessible to this people group in their heart language. Please pray for God's work here!
I starting reading and listening to Boundless right after I moved here. I have listened to all the old podcast and I look forward to downloading the newest podcasts each time I go into the city. Thanks so much for all you guys do! God Bless you and the Boundless Ministry!
Ashley

Hi Ashley,
I bet I'll be meeting you when I move down there in February to do that same work. Meantime, God be with you in your work... and you can pray for me as I'm raising support and getting rid of my things here in the US!
Blessings,
Rachael

I just got finished looking up some places (particularly Christian language schools) in Mexico! I would love to do missions work there, but I don't know where to start! God bless the ministry you're doing down there :)

It is such a small world, I totally know your blonde teammate. She is from my church in the great white snowy north. You guys are continually in our prayers. And to quote the Wook’ “we love you guys”

Hi Ashley (#4) - You might try the website called The Finishers' Project - it's excellent at hooking you up with ministries that match your specific gifts and talents! Blessings!
