Mexico

Mexico was the first country that George Verwer, who later became the founder of OM, visited in 1957

Mexico’s 130 million people are ethnically and regionally very diverse. There are sharp socioeconomic divisions within its population. Mexico is the country with the largest indigenous population (17 million) and the greatest number of languages (68) spoken in the American continent. Mexico has also the largest concentration of unreached people in Spanish-speaking Latin America known as the “Circulo del Silencio” in the middle of Mexico with 23 million people. In each of the municipalities less than one in a 100 know the love of Jesus.

The country is very rich in natural resources, flora and fauna and culture and traditions. However, many regions still suffer marginalization, extreme poverty, insecurity and violence.

By investing time, talent and resources in establishing vibrant communities of Jesus followers in Mexico, many people will be touched and transformed.

Jesus followers in Mexico

Officially, there is religious freedom in this country. Official figures state that about 11.2% of the population are Evangelical Christians. 68 different people groups are represented in Mexico, with almost a million yet to hear of God’s love for the first time. Many international groups work alongside national believers, both in the cities and rural areas.

Come and visit Mexico, experience its culture and diversity, meet the local church, work alongside national Jesus followers – talking even in basic Spanish – and be part of what God is doing. Join the team discipling the youth or be part of starting our OM Office in Querétaro, a beautiful international city in the middle of Mexico. Come and help mobilize the church towards the least reached in Mexico and beyond.

Whether you come for a long, or short time, or whether you pray, or invest in lives through financial support, there are many ways for you to share God’s love with the people in Mexico.
