Mexico: Where is the justice for Actael Evangelicals?
Mexico: Where is the justice for Actael Evangelicals?
In the southern Mexican State of Chiapas, women have been separated from their husbands for more than a dozen years, some of their children have never met their fathers or grandfathers, and others were too young to remember when the men were taken to prison on false charges of participating in a massacre in which 45 people were killed in the town of Actael in Chiapas State. This is just another case of the persecution and injustice of Evangelical Christians in Mexico.

- Pray for Mexico
Pray that the Christians residing within these regions will exemplify the grace of God toward those who oppose them. May these believers be further strengthened and encouraged to continue faithfully sharing the Gospel and demonstrating the love of Jesus. Ask the Lord to abundantly bless and multiply their efforts, resulting in a great harvest of lasting spiritual fruit in the lives of those within their communities and beyond – impacting the nation of Mexico as a whole.
