MEXICO — Church Planting in the "Circle of Silence"
Aaron is a front-line worker in a region of central Mexico where there is little gospel witness for Christ.
Aaron is one of many church planters advancing God’s kingdom in the “Circle of Silence,” an eight-state region in central Mexico of nearly 23 million people with less than 1% evangelical witness for Christ.
There is a strong culture of Christo-paganism, which is a syncretistic blend of ancient pagan practices and Roman Catholicism, and front-line workers like Aaron are often opposed by those hostile to the gospel. Aaron lost his job because of his faithful witness, and he and others like him are routinely threatened.
These front-line workers request prayer for renewed strength and encouragement as they serve in this difficult place. They also ask for prayer that God will increase their opportunities to reach more neighborhoods with the gospel and that they will be able to celebrate more baptisms as new believers trust in Christ.
