Today we have a large event planned for Tzemembolom, Chiapas Mexico. We’ll be handing out 500 toys and gift packages to needy kids in this Tzotzlil Indian Community.

We have a public auditoriom set aside for this event and will also have clowns, special music (Cristi will be playing the guitar and singing).

Tomorrow we’ll be doing the same type of Event en San Juan Chamula.

In addition to giving our gifts we’ll be giving people the opportunity to accept God’s gift- Jesus Christ!

Here’s a few photos of the gift preparations.

The Star of Christmas is Jesus.

That’s why it’s frustrating when people wish you “Happy Holidays” instead of “Merry Christmas”?

90% of the Christmas books have to do with Santa and Frosty and Rudolph and the Elves—with hardly even a mention of Jesus Christ.

How can we teach our children and grandchildren the true meaning of Christmas in a world that is so dominated by a secular humanist, anti-Christian philosophy?

Little Star Book by Anthony DeStefano

We need to introduce Children as early as possible to the real story of the Birth of Jesus. And one of the most effective ways to do that is to give them a brand new children’s book—one that is already being hailed as a true Christian classic It’s called Little Star .

Little Star Video By Pat Boone

In the following Video Pat Boone reads the story of the Little Star.

This is the story of the Star of Bethlehem. He is the “smallest star in the heavens,” but on the night Jesus is born, he shines the brightest in order to warm the baby king and his family.

This video and book not only introduces children to the true meaning of Christmas, but to the whole message of the Gospel! For in shining his light on the Holy Family throughout the bitter cold night, Little Star burns himself out, and in doing so, demonstrates the meaning of Christ-like, sacrificial love.

My Daughter Cristi and I just watched the video of the Little Star. Although Cristi is 10 years old and I’m a little older we were both touched by this story.

I hope you enjoyed the video. You can purchase the book using the link below:

We recently passed out almost 500 Children’s Bibles in Tzotzil.

The Bibles were donated by the American Bible Society of Mexico.

These children’s Bible include the Gospel of Mark. Coloring pages, stickers and a dvd with  with both Spanish and Tzotzil languages. The dvd is great since illiteracy is a major problem with the Indians.
Tzeneembolon is located about 2 and a half hours from us.:

We’re in the middle of handing out 2100 toys to the Children in the Tzotzil Indian tribes where we minister.

So far we’ve handed out over 1500 toys and goodies to these very appreciative children, The smiles aon their faces tell the whole story.

Clowns, music, puppets, toys, candy and pinatas are just part of the fiestas.  These children have never experienced such a party like this before. It is a Christmas that they will remember.

We wish you could be here to see them enjoy a small gift that would be meaningless to the more fortunate.

Here’s a small unedited video from one of the villages where we minister in the regions of Chenalho, Chiapas, Mexico. Hope you enjoy it:

The Poorest of the Poor.
Recently we ministered in an Indian village of 400 people called Tzanembolom.
This is one of the poorest villages I have ever visited. Despite the cool weather many of the Indians were without proper shoes or clothing to protect them from the weather.
It was especially heartbreaking to see the children without shoes.  This Christmas we will be giving a toy and personal necessities to these very poor Indian children. You can be a part by sending in your special donations. Don’t miss this opportunity to give a real Christmas experience to some really needy children.
Now, more than ever, These Children need Hope and Love!

From Tzanembolom- Nov 16, 2008

Martyred in Tzanembolom

This is the same village in which Diego Rodriguez Pastors a church of over 200 people which is half the population.
On Oct 15, 1997 the Zapatistas entered Tzanembolom and began to cut up Indian residents with their machetes.  Pastor Diego was strung up to a post and prepared to be killed. However, while his friends were being massacred he managed to escape with his life. As Pastor Diego told me the story he couldn’t help but to weep. Many of his family members and close friends were martyred this day
Sadly, this is only one of the many Christian Indian tribes that suffered the loss of lives and have been persecution because of their faith in Christ.

This past week a group of 10 members from Gulfway Church in Gulf Shores, Alabama came down to minister in San Crsitobal, Chenalho, Tuxtla Gutierrez, and Bochil, Chiapas. Pastor Bruce Dumond and his team worked and ministered with fervor.

The group arrived on Thursday, October 16th. That night they stayed in a colonial hotel in San Cristobal.

Gulfway Church Ministry in Chenalho, Chiapas

The next day we drove an hour to Chenalho where most of the group worked on the Pastors house. They manually mixed cement and poured 2 floors. You may remember that I told you about Pastor Mariano’s departure to be with the Lord two weeks ago. Since that time, his wife and family have been living in the Church building. They had too many difficult memories of their old home. Perhaps you could imagine the difficult circumstances as their loved one was in a coma state for over a week with no doctors help.
The team from Gulfway was a major blessing to them. (The Indian family was already in the midst of building a new house before the Pastor passed on to be with the Lord.)

That same day we held a conference for the 25 Indian Pastors and Leaders. There was a lot on the agenda . The leaders and our ministry, Unanimous Ministries, placed the Pastors son in law as president of the association after Apostle Mariano’s death.
Also, we placed Pastor Mariano’s wife as the Pastor of the Church in Chenalho. This is a miracle in itself since the Indian culture and tradition says that a women should walk behind a man and women in general aren’t given any positions of authority. Since our ministry, http://www.unanimousministries.com/, is backing up this ministry she was able to get an adequate covering as a woman.
Pastor Bruce ministered to the entire group. Everyone left weeping as God spoke to them through him. The ministry team also held a special children’s event with the Indian children. It was touching to see these very poor children receive small gifts and arts and crafts from the team.

That evening we returned to San Cristobal.

The next morning, Pastor Jorge, Pastor Bruce, Dale Matson and I left at 5:30 in the morning  to minister to the leaders in Tuxtla Gutierrez where Jorge Gutierrez is Pastor. The rest of the group stayed in San Cristobal to repair a 300 year old building that Unanimous Ministries and Ricky Parker, another missionary, are using as a missionary training facility.

Gulfway Church Ministry in San Cristobal

We ministered that evening in one of the brand new churches that we have started in San Cristobal. This was a special time. 7 people made decisions to serve Jesus as Lord of their lifes. The Church grew in number by 35% that night since there were originally only 19 members of the church.

Gulfway Church Ministry in Tuxtla Gutierrez

On Sunday, October 19th, the entire group packed up and left San Cristobal de las Casas to minister in the main church in Tuxtla Gutierrez. which has a membership of over 300 people. Pastor Bruce ministered on “not being intimated and moving in the spirit and power of God”. The Matsons sang using their Q-Chord instrument, and the rest of the ministry team did a special children’s program with the kids from the church.

That afternoon the entire team visited the Canon de Sumidero (boat ride up a crocodile infested river), the Marimba Park (Marimba music and outside dancing), and Las Pichanchas (A famous Restaurant).

On Monday morning we left for Bochil, Chiapas where the group was scheduled to do a Church building project. Ministry in Bochil included:

• Doubling the size of the existing church building
• 2 days of clown, puppet and children s ministry
• painting the children’s building
• Special evening services
• Testimonies by the member of the group
• Long work days

The group worked very hard and did an excellent job. The members of the church in Bochil also did an excellent job of preparing meals and helping to organize all the activities. The members from Bochil were especially grateful for the church expansion project. The building project was originally scheduled to add on a children’s building but because of rains and mountains slides the project turned out to be  a building expansion project. God had things planned out since Gulfway Church is in the middle of their own church expansion project, only on a much larger scale. (The Bochil church expansion project only cost around $4200).

On Wednesday, the group from Gulfway Church worked half a day finishing up most of the building project. We left Bochil and traveled through the curvy mountain roads. We also took a small break and visited a magnificent waterfall called the Choreadero.

That evening we all celebrated Pastor Jorge Gutierrez’s Birthday. Although he pastors a large congregation he found the time to be with us during all the events. He used his vehicle to help provide transportation, he worked alongside the group and did everything he could to be of assistance. Besides being a great help himself, he was also very touched by the ministry from Gulfway Church.

Early on Thursday Morning, the group boarded the airplane in Tuxlta Gutierrez, Chiapas. They were exhausted and still had a long trip ahead of them as they flew back to the U.S.A.. The works that they left behind were great.

All of us here in Chipas all very grateful for everything that Gulfway Church did by providing their time, finances, hard work and ministry on this mission field.

Thank you Gulfway Church.

We started our first church in San Juan Cosala, Jalisco Mexico.

This project began with a weekly Ministry to the children. We were the first and ONLY Gospel Church in this hard to reach town.

The ministry has always thrived and the Pastors are doing an en excellent job. The church has already purchased a piece of property and will be moving to the new location soon. There is no building yet, so everyone will meet under a tarp until it is constructed.

On June 14th I took photos of our children’s ministry which began in 2001.

Activities today included:

• Bible Study
• Puppets
• Songs
• Learning a Bible Verse
• Fun & Games
• Handing out Shoes
• Eating Tacos
