How did we ever get to this point? That is a question we find ourselves asking often these days. The Lord has blessed us with many opportunities to serve within our home church, Austin Ridge Bible Church, locally in Austin and globally in Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic.
God wrecked our lives for better!
We have been part of an amazing community in Austin, Texas, Austin Ridge Bible Church, Eanes School District and Manny’s career as a Credit Officer at the Farm Credit Bank of Texas; however, God had other plans for us. God has opened our eyes and heart to His word and His world. We have been given the opportunity to serve his people from Lima, Peru in order that the nations will be blessed to know Jesus Christ.
We desire to see God’s people reconciled to himself through Jesus Christ and want to play our part in seeing every nation, tribe, people and language redeemed and worshipping the Lord on earth as it is in heaven as represented in Revelations 7:9.
The Vision
Since 2001, the Center for Mission Mobilization has been working to engage, equip, and connect believers worldwide to their most strategic role in completing the Great Commission. Our mission is to point those who know and follow Jesus to those with little to no access to the gospel. We aim to rally the global church to work together in spreading God’s glory to the ends of the earth. We couldn’t be more blessed to join an amazing team.
The Work
Manny will serve as a member of the Latin America Catalytic Team. Through existing networks and new relationships, we will identify, serve and resource national leaders who desire to be used by God to mobilize the Church in their country. We aim to be humble, teachable servants as we serve Church leadership.
19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations… Matthew 28:19
Latino missionaries are being mobilized to go to the hardest places in the world—Arabic-speaking Muslim countries in the Middle East.
From a 2013 Perspectives class in Lima, Peru, a local church pastor was mobilized and began preaching the need for Latinos to take the gospel to the unreached. Four young people in the congregation answered that call and are preparing to serve as Christ’s ambassadors in the Middle East.
We had the opportunity to meet one of the individuals preparing to do missions in the Middle East and we are excited at the opportunity to play our part in sending more Latino’s in the coming years!
Jesus invites us in Matthew 9:37-38, “…the harvest is plentiful and the laborers are few, therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.”
Please pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest for laborers to be sent!
