The 2024–2025 academic year at San Pablo Presbyterian Theological Seminary was marked by growth, global engagement, and spiritual formation. Under the leadership of Rector Amós Cahuich Yam, the seminary continues to train theology students from 20 Mexican states, as well as Guatemala, Belize, Honduras, Chile, and Colombia.

Deep in the tropical lowland forests of southern México, the Lion of Judah is on the move. In the southern state of Campeche, the Presbyterian church in the small village of Manuel Castilla Brito is answering the call to bring light to neighboring communities. In partnership with the National Presbyterian Church of México and The Outreach Foundation, Iglesia El Buen Pastor (Church of the Good Shepherd), led by Pastor Eleazar López, has embarked on a bold mission to reach four nearby villages with the gospel.

Imagine encountering the Bible for the very first time, not in a second language, but in the language you speak to your children, whisper in prayer, and carry in your heart. For Tzeltal-speaking Christians in southern México, that moment is finally within reach, and you can help make it possible.

The Tzeltal people, nearly 400,000 strong, live in the lush highlands of Chiapas. For over 50,000 of them, Tzeltal is their only spoken language. While a full translation of the Bible into Tzeltal was completed in 2003, it has never been widely published, leaving many without access to the scriptures in the language closest to their hearts.

Visiting Our Friends and Partners in México

From the windswept high desert of Durango to the sweltering tropical Pacific coast lowlands of Colima, the Spirit of God is on the move in a mighty way in this predominantly Catholic country. Since 2021, The Outreach Foundation has partnered with the National Presbyterian Church of México (INPM) to advance the Gospel and mature disciples for Christ’s kingdom. The Presbyterian church is alive and thriving south of the border, with 8,000 congregations and over six million members.

One of the key priorities of the Presbyterian church in México is planting new churches where there is minimal evangelical presence.

Cistern Ministry Friends,

Thank you for all your financial gifts, well wishes, and prayers asking God to continue to bless our little rainwater collection ministry. Without your steadfast support, we cannot continue to share this ministry with more families that thirst.

Maria and I are excited to receive five American mission teams this summer. When the dust settles, 20 families will become new cistern owners. That will bring the 2024 cistern total to 32 and the grand total to 699. All thanks to God, who motivates and empowers our partners year after year.
