SPANISH MOBILIZATION MATERIALS-- Prayer
From: Doug
Juventud Con Una Mision (YWAM), Apdo 3602, Tegucigalpa, MDC HONDURAS.
We produced several materials in Spanish for the October 1995 "Praying Through the 100 Gateway Cities of the 10/40 Window". Although this prayer focus has passed, the materials can still be used to mobilize prayer for these 100 key cities of the 10/40 Window.
The materials we produced are:
1. Calendario de Oracion (30 dias) "Orando Por Los 100 Ciudades Claves de La Ventana 10/40"
2. Mapa para Intercesion por las 100 Ciudades
3. Mapa de La Ventana 10/40
4. 10 Motivos de Oracion por las 100 Ciudades
All four of these materials are photo-copyable and on legal-sized paper (landscape orientation). We also have done a "Pasos Hacia El Campo Misionero" which gives 9 steps towards getting to the missions field for someone who believes that God is calling them to missions (also black and white on legal sized paper).
[The book (150 pgs.) with the prayer requests for the 100 Gateway Cities "Orando por las 100 Ciudades de Acceso" is available from Unilit, 1360 NW 88th Ave., Miami, FL 33172.
The same publisher will also be publishing a Spanish version of the book on the Unreached Peoples of the 10/40 Window, which will become available in October 1996 for the "Praying Through The Window III" campaign in October 1997. Translations are expected to be made in some 15 other languages as well!-NW]
SPANISH UPG INFO ON MEXICO on WWW
From: Lloyd
I Recommend a link to a site that gives information in Spanish on 51
unreached/underreached people groups of Mexico. As part of a doctoral seminar
at Stamford University in 1997) I placed these profiles on the WWW [at]:
http://www.eccnet.com/missions/p_n_a ... The information is way out of date
now, and a much better printed version of this material appeared later,
Alcanzando las Etnias de Mexico. Quite some time ago I started reprogramming my
original site to include all the information that appeared in that book (with
the permission of the compilers), but I never got around to getting it all
done. I have perhaps about 1/2 of it done, but I haven't uploaded those
reprogrammed pages or updated that site in years.
I am now working as a Consultant to the International Mission Board's Middle America Region in the area of missions mobilization. We travel throughout Mexico, Central America, and Panama to help our Baptist churches and Conventions gain a world missions vision and become involved in sending missionaries. As a resource to the mobilizers I am working with in several of these countries I am developing a mobilizers web site. It is very simple and just in the beginning stages, but you might take a look at it: www.geocities.com/movilizacionmisionera

I am actually working in promoting Adopt-A-People in Mexico and LAM through COMIMEX --Cooperacion Misionera de Mexico. We have a book in Spanish entitled "Alcancemos las Etnias de Mexico" with much of the findings of the research we did on unreached people groups in Mexico.
We translated and printed the USCWM pamphlet "The Amazing Countdown" --"La Sorprendente Cuenta Regresiva". We also have re-done their Adopt-A-People set of transparencies. Ours is full color. They have a lot more to offer you. Contact Rigoberto Diguero, Latin American Division.
There are some videos like “Peace Child” and others that have been translated into Spanish available from almost any Christian bookstore. You can also contact Global Mapping Intl. (GMI) and ask about their sets of maps in Spanish.
COMIBAM printed a set of cards to pray for the unreached.

HISPANIC MISSIONARIES
QUESTION From: DENNIS
The NW regional Director of COMHINA (Cooperacion Misionera de Hispanos de Norteamerica), has asked me if I could get him a list of all the Hispanic Missionaries ministering on the foreign fields right now. He would like to know who they are, and any pertinent information about them or their ministry that could be used in his COHMINA presentations and missions prayer meetings...
ANSWER From: Bruce
Alfalit is active throughout Central & South America plus the one Spanish-speaking country in Africa. Their US address is: Alfalit International, 3026 NW 79 Ave., Miami, FL 33122 305-597-9077
ANSWER From: Jason
There are probably 2000 Brazilians ministering cross-culturally outside of Brazil, and at least 500 more ministering cross-culturally within Brazil. And that's not to mention the rest of Latin America! Your best bet is probably SEPAL in Brazil. He can tell you which Brazilian organizations are sending missionaries, and to where. You can then follow up and get specific names if you wish. By the end of this year he'll probably be able to give similar info for most or all of Latin America. He's at: sepal@ibm.net.
SIFAT (Servants in Faith and Technology) is a non-profit, interdenominational, ecumenical, Christian based organization. Founded 17 years ago, SIFAT provides holistic Christian community development training. In recent years, SIFAT has helped to establish appropriate technology and Christian community development training centers in Venezuela, Bolivia, and Ecuador. SIFAT organizes medical and construction work teams to complement the existing community development projects in these countries and to share in a cross-cultural experience. In addition, SIFAT responds to requests by individuals and organizations from all over the world for information on specific appropriate technologies of interest.... SIFAT's central goal is to follow the example of Jesus, demonstrating the love of God in practical ways by meeting physical, social, and spiritual needs of the people. This is primarily accomplished by working through indigenous Christian organizations in developing countries to better equip them to address the needs in their own communities.... SIFAT has a number of courses this year, including one on Aquaculture, that would be good for you to check out. Although they have their training centers in Latin America, the information you pick up from these courses could be used, with adaptation, in any World A situation.
