Bible Studies Expand Through Del Rio Mission

Rev. Gary Martin, pastor of Cristo El Salvador Lutheran Church in Del Rio has been serving the Latino communities in Texas and across the border in Acuña, Mexico. Pastor Martin’s servant heart has gained the trust and respect of people throughout the area. His goal is to train leaders who will plant missions. This is happening through people like Worker Verónica Gaytán, Worker Sandra Patricia Perez and Worker Daniel Hernandez. Verónica and Sandra have started a number of small Bible study groups, a new children’s class and ladies Bible study group. Both Verónica and Sandra are taking classes through the Hispanic Lutheran Institute on line from El Paso. Worker Daniel Hernandez leads the adult Bible class and preaches once a month at Iglesia Luterana Rios de Agua Viva in Acuña and is planning to become a pastor and is also enrolled in the Hispanic Lutheran Institute. Praise God for the lives that are being touched through these missions.
