CHURCH PLANTING in new mexico<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Missions Mobilization<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If we want to reach New Mexicans for Christ, we need to partner with Church Planters that God is using and bringing to our state. We have compiled a list of Church Planters that are currently in need of partners to come alongside in prayer, outreach, building endeavors & financial support. By partnering together, we can make a huge impact! Bring it before the church and pray how the Lord will lead you in supporting our Church Plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Contact our Mission Mobilization Team Leader, Matt Thackerson @ 505-604-9018 or email: mthackerson@bcnm.com<\/a> to find out more on how to become a Church Plant Partner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IMMIGRATION RECENT ISSUES<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Churches have a long history of providing sanctuary to immigrants and others. However, the recent policy for enforcing immigration laws in sensitive locations such as in churches has changed. The Department of Justice in the State of New Mexico has provided a document to assist New Mexico’s places of worship in responding to immigration issues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

FOUNDATIONS OF FAITH<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We continue each week visiting dairies in the Anthony, Vado, Berino and Mesquite area. Farms, Nurseries, Worskshops and Construction sites near the area, now also including North East El Paso, Do\u00f1a Ana, and Otero County.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two weeks ago we collaborated with Disaster Relief, a ministry from the Southern Baptist Convention, to aid those who were affected in the recent flooding in the Vado NM area. We assisted with searching for families in need of the services the Disaster Relief provides. Once those families were registered, ad with clearing of the affected areas within the property was provided. We removed debris from their yard, cut and removed damaged sheet rock and insulation, and sprayed chemicals that addressed mold. Aside from this, we also gifted bibles, prayed for the families affected, and shared the gospel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Foundations of Faith will continue to follow up with the families affected from the floods to continue spreading the gospel and reminding them the hope we have in Jesus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n

You and your church don’t necessarily need to begin a ministry or reinvent the wheel that is already at work sharing the gospel and meeting the needs of your local community. These ministries have already done the groundwork and even been given an open door at strategic places and have been accepted by the people they are ministering to. For the most part, these ministries are also in need of volunteers and financial support. Bless each other by partnering and serving your local community together!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

At Your Service<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n

God is at work always and He has us serving together in this area for such a time as this. Let\u2019s partner together to reach all of New Mexico with the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ and let\u2019s see God\u2019s mighty goodness all around us! Always remember that we are on the same team \u2013 God\u2019s team!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
