Jesus Film Mexico - Super connected


This past Thursday Craig and I headed off to meet with Jorge Dorcas the Pelicula de Jesus (Jesus Film) director in Mexico. Jorge has been with J film for over 10 years and is so well connected to churches, ministries and Christians in Mexico City. They know and believe their resource will change lives and in order to get it in every home and neighborhood they must partner with others. This is the same realization we have in Enfoque Mexico. In order to see God raise up a Christ centered spiritual community in the over 4,000 departments (faculties) on each university in the city we must partner with others who are trusting God with the same thing.

He brought together Andres Cerros Ruiz, the director of a family ministry. They loved our vision and mission and on Oct 30 we are speaking to about 30 pastors and ministries that Andres organizes monthly. We also asked for other networks of churches, pastors and leaders. Jorge was super encouraging and willing to help. He kept saying, "we're family." "my office is your office." Now we have our hands full in the next week or two to start meeting with, sharing and partnering with as many churches who want to bring a student led spiritual community in each faculty.

An answer to this need to meet with and share with these churches and pastors was provided through two gals from Oaxaca. These two girls, as Craig calls them the Doble A's. Both their names start with A. He worked with them in Oaxaca years ago in planting movements on campuses all over the south. One or two of them is coming in a week to aid us in planting movements and meeting with pastors. They get the vision and mission and this is a huge step forward in seeing God radically move here in Mexico City.
