Recruiting More Seminary Students

One of the Mexican seminary students, Carlos Rosales, is currently in northern Sonora, a Mexican state that borders Arizona. To get there, he had to take a 19-hour bus ride from Torreón.

His long trip has a good purpose: Carlos is there as part of seminary recruitment efforts. Missionary Ron Baerbock is working with many souls in the Sonora area, and some of them may be interested in becoming a pastor. Carlos will talk to them, tell them about what his life is like, and see if they are interested in full-time ministry.

Next month, another student, Jorge Briones, will head to Monterrey and Juarez. Both of these citites also have congregations with young people that are at about the right age to enter a seminary program.

It is our prayer that God bless their efforts and bring more students into the seminary. The number of pastors in Mexico has increased during the last few years, and we would like to see it continue that way.
