Movement Launching in the Yucatan Peninsula

Flew to Mérida, Mexico (on the Yucutan Peninsula) on Saturday to meet with some students who have just launched a movement on their university campus. They came all the way across the country to Acapulco a few weeks ago to participate in our evangelism and movement-launching conference. Now they have taken the principles back to their campus and started their own group with the encouragement on some Athletes in Action staff in their city.

Paty and Lauren are incredible young women on fire for Christ and crazy enough to believe Him for their university. They are exactly the kind of students we want to work with. They have wonderful stories about coming to Christ just a few years ago. Like many people, they were part of the Catholic church but had never understood how to have a personal relationship with Jesus. Now they are multiplying their lives for His glory.

My co-director, Craig Jorhing, and I have landed in Cancun today for some much needed rest. Here are a few of the amazing sights we have taken in over the past few days around Mérida.

See a lot more pictures here.
