EVANGELISMO GLOBAL
In 1968 while studying and becoming proficient in the Spanish language, the first GYE missionaries visited small ranches and villages in the Guadalajara area. Then in 1969 with the Mexican training center established in a suburb of the city, GYE'S "Missionary Intern Program" was established. Youth groups from the U. S. were invited to travel to Mexico for intense training in missionary principles and practical ministry. Activities of literature distribution and evangelism were coordinated with local missionary efforts and resulted in placing new converts into existing churches as well as the establishment of new works.
As a result of years of evangelism and prayer, God began to call out young men and women to a life of full time service, and the need for a Bible Institute in Mexico became apparent. In 1975 a one year Bible institute was established at Guadalajara. This was patterned after the one already in operation at our missionary training center at Los Gatos, California.
However, in 1977 the Bible school and staff moved from Guadalajara to Ensenada, Baja California about 80 miles South of the border city of Tijuana, Mexico. This move was made in order to better coordinate the activities in Mexico with those in the U. S. Currently the Bible Institute at Ensenada continues to train Mexican men and women as pastors and workers for the kingdom of God.
One of the early graduates of our Mexican Bible Institute that was established in Guadajara is now Director/Pastor of the Bible Institute and Mexican church located at Ensenada. (Pictured above)
Another graduate from our Bible Institute at Orland, California is responsible for the office and distribution of the Christian Worker Bible Studies Series in Mexico. He also oversees the prison ministry in Baja California as well as the children and youth ministries in several barrios in the Ensenada area.
Pictured above are two barrio churches built by our Global Youth Evangelism missionary in Mexico. The pictures below shows the missionary and a youth team conducting services in a barrio church.
