Would you like to take part in Mexican Missions?

Is God calling you to join those of us who have taken up the Great Commission given by Jesus? 

We welcome you to come to Mexico and work hand-in-hand with us in service to God and His people. 

Do you have a special ministry that God has given you? We want to hear about it, and consider how you could be used to serve the Lord and His people here in the Sierra Madres Mountains.

The Christian Ministry fields here are truly ripe for the harvest. There is much work to be done, and few are answering the call to bring the Gospel of Jesus to these lost people.

If you are a Spirit filled Christian, or you are seeking the will of God to become a Christian, and can make the trip to Mexico to assist us in our ministry, we'll be delighted to help you with all of your travel plans. 

Your costs:

We are a none profit Christian ministry. 

We do not charge a fee to take part in our ministry.

Travel Costs
You will be responsible for your own travel expenses to the nearest airport which is 35 miles over the mountains from us in Guadalajara (we'll pick you up at the airport) or you can drive in (14 hours from Laredo Texas). We will also assist you in making travel arrangements, including explaining proper documentation needed to enter the nation of Mexico.

Transportation
If you fly in, we'll pick you up at the airport and transport you to a hotel or to our home. On the ministry road trip days we will pick you up, bring you to the villages that God leads us to to spread His Word, and deliver you back to where ever you are staying each evening. We also will bring you to the airport when it's your time to leave. We charge no fees for transportation.

Lodging - Our Home
Small groups of up to four adults are welcome to stay with us in our home at no cost for short term mission work, while arrangement of hotel rooms will be made for larger groups or extended stays. 

Lodging - Hotels
Clean and safe hotel rooms located in the Village of Chapala will range in cost to you from $20.00 to $35.00US per night, per room, with up to two occupants allowed per room. 

Food
If you are staying with us in our home, you will be expected to pitch in for the cost of food (about $10.00 US or less per person per day). We'll see to the preparing and serving of your meals. If you are not staying in our home you will have the option to choose to have your meals with us, or to partake of the restaurants and cafes in the village where you'll be staying. 

We are very familiar with the local restaurants and will be happy to make suggestions. We usually eat out one night a week and we can all go together. Some of the best home made tacos and tamales in the state of Jalisco are available in the village of Chapala, and for only seven pesos each, about 68 cents US. 

The fruits and vegetables are all grown locally, are vine or tree ripened, and are better than any we had ever had back in the states. The breads and pastries are fresh baked daily in the village. We have bananas and avocados growing in our yard, and limes, guava, pomegranates, and mangos grow wild in the jungle surrounding us.

During the day, when on ministry road trips, we eat in the cafes and at the sidewalk stands in the villages. The food is traditional, cheap, delicious, and very safe. Sharing the culture and the food of the locals will add a wonderful experience to your trip. You will be well off of the tourist route and will see Mexico as she really is. And she is beautiful!

Ministry materials and supplies used
We would also ask that you cover the cost of any ministry supplies you may use while here. Spanish Christian tracts to hand out cost us about 30 cents each and Spanish and Indian dialect audio tapes of the gospel cost us 60 cents each; these prices include our costs for shipping and handling. We make no financial profit from the ministry materials used by you. We can tell you how to purchase Spanish New Testament Bibles to bring with you for $2.00 US per copy in case lots.

Our work
Note; This will be a Christian Ministry working trip. You will be given the first day of your arrival to rest up, and then the following day we go out into the fields of harvest. You can expect to be visiting mountain villages to present the gospel of Christ at least three days out of the week, possibly more, depending on your length of stay. Spouses may choose to remain behind in our home and assist with the preparing of meals if desired.

Down Time
We are Holy Spirit filled Christians. Our down time between ministry road trips will be filled with Bible discussions, times of prayer, and light hearted Godly Christian fellowship. We try to work in a half day of hiking in the jungle and mountains near our home while you're here and also a trip to the Chapala lake front market area. Our home is a joyful place to be and we welcome you. 

For married couples
My wife and I have been married 33 years, have been through the fire, and if desired, can offer Biblical marriage counseling to married couples that come to Mexico to work with us. 

Our requirements of you:

(1) You and all members of your group must be Holy Spirit filled Christians.

(2) As a sign of being Spirit filled, you must have a burning desire to serve God by bringing the Gospel of Jesus Christ to His people.

(3) We are all sinners, but if you are living in ongoing sin with out seeking repentance and forgiveness through the blood of Christ, please go before the throne of God and cleanse yourself before coming here. We do not entertain alternative life styles.

1Cr 6:9 " Know you not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind".

You must be in good health and able to walk at least 3 miles per day. Please do not bring small or undisciplined children of any age on this trip. 

Please note:
If you are unable to make a trip to Mexico at this time, you can still help with God's ministry to the people here. We are in need of supplies used in our ministry. The Gospel tracts, and audio/video ministry items we use are not available here and must be sent from the United States. We average giving out around 200 audio tapes per day when on a ministry road trip.

We are totally self supporting for all of our personal needs such as housing, utilities, vehicle, gasoline, food, medical, etc., and also most of the ministry supplies we use. However, due to the overwhelming needs of the people God has placed us among to serve, we are in great need of additional assistance in acquiring ministry supplies. Not one item or one cent of donated funds will be for our own use. If you can't make a mission trip to Mexico, but would still like to help, please go to the link below, pray for God's will, and let us know if you can assist us in any way.

If you can make a trip to Mexico, email us to begin a discussion about your coming to serve in Mexican Missions. 

Please allow me to reiterate; we make NO PROFIT from your mission trip here. We DO NOT charge a fee for you to take part in our mission work, and we DO NOT charge a fee for you to stay in our home, only a share in the cost of food. This is God's work, NOT an income producing business.
