MTW has a wide range of ministries in Mexico. Our Border Evangelism and Mercy Ministries team has been involved in building schools, helping communities in health and development, and teaching churches to be concerned for spiritual transformation, as well as starting 10 churches on both sides of the border. Churches have been planted in Northern Mexico Queretaro, and Guadalajara as well. In Mexico City, there is a thriving university ministry with new plans for church planting there. In Acapulco, there are ministries to orphans and street children as well as teacher training at the Maranatha Bible Institute. MTW recently bought a campground in Guanajuato, and our vision is to develop it into a training center, vision retreat, and a place for outreach to communities surrounding the campground.
