This month HFC initiated a new kingdom partnership between Calvary Baptist Church in Easton, PA and our Field Coordinator, Juan Tun, in the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico. Calvary sent a team in August to meet Juan, hear his vision for church planting, and explore the idea of a partnership between the church and this mission field. After this meeting Calvary invited Juan to come up to visit them and meet the church. Everyone had a great week-end enjoying the hospitality of Calvary and thinking about what the future might look like working together to spread the Good News throughout the Yucatan.
There are numerous opportunities for ministry in this part of Mexico, but a few of the proposals Juan shared with the church and invited them to participate in are:
- Easter 2013 VBS
- A summer youth retreat next year in partnership with the city of Dzindzantun
- Launching a new children’s outreach in the village next to Dzindzantun
- Developing the existing children’s ministry in Dzindzantun to reach out to parents and youth
We look forward to God working in and through the partnership between Juan’s ministry and Calvary Baptist in the coming years.
