COMING TOGETHER
Within the greater Queretaro area, there are at
least seven men who are serving the Lord (excluding
others from different "denominations") that are
either missionaries or Mexican evangelists. There is
a medical evangelist, a bible institute president, a
children's home administrator, two Mexican evangehst's, and the two of us working with Bajio Chris
tian Mission. Although all of us do not have the same
ministry, we are all serving the same purpose. Since
the beginning of February, the men have gotten
together and decided to form a men's meeting that
would meet on Saturday mornings. The meeting is
composed of these missionaries and Mexican evan
gelists. The purpose of this meeting is for men to
meet together to pray, to study from God's word, to
fellowship and to share with the others about what is
taking place in each of the specific ministries that
each of us are involved iiL
