Do you ever wonder if your
prayers have any effect? Your
prayers were, and continue to be instrumental in the lives of the 18,000
Ocotlan Zapotec in Mexico.
They were on this list last year as a group with less than 2% of their
population as believers in Jesus Christ.
However, there are now missionaries working to engage them in Mexico,
and as a result of this engagement, God’s Spirit is moving among them. While they continue to need prayer, the
gospel is beginning to bear fruit among them! Please pray for the new believers and ask for lasting
eternal fruit as a result of the new engagement of the Ocotlan Zapotec, both in
Mexico, and among the population in Oregon in the USA.

May 5 - Pray for the Indigenous Peoples of Mexico in the USA
As Mexicans in Puebla and many Americans in the USA celebrate Cinco de Mayo today, please pray for the indigenous peoples who have
immigrated to the USA. They are here by the tens
of thousands and are hidden all around us. They struggle to learn Spanish and English. They live in constant fear. They are discriminated against by other
immigrants as being “uneducated indians.” God has brought these people to us so
they can come to Christ. They need to be found, reached with the gospel, and
helped to start churches among their people both here and in Mexico. Pray that churches in the USA would
reach out and embrace their indigenous Mexican neighbors and do whatever it
takes to reach them for Christ.

May 1 - Praying for the Unreached Peoples of Mexico
There are 28 distinct
people groups in Mexico who are considered unreached with the gospel. This means that less than two percent
of the population has a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Access to the gospel for these peoples
is limited due to language and cultural differences which hinder the natural
spread of the good news, as well as their geographical isolation. As we pray for each of these people
groups by name each day this month, please ask for the following:
1. Ask the Father to raise up more workers to take the gospel to them
2. Ask God to raise up people of peace who will give gospel workers access to their people
3. Ask for open access, as many groups are suspicious of evangelicals
4. Ask for His Holy Spirit to prepare their hearts to receive the gospel
5. Ask that God would highlight those who have immigrated to the USA to churches so that they can be evangelized, discipled, and mobilized to reach their people, both in the USA and Mexico.
