On August 7 at the Nikko Hotel in Mexico City, Rick Warren spoke to 80 Mexico City Christian Business Leaders challenging them to transform their city for Jesus Christ using all their available resources that God has given them (relationships, business and money). The event was sponsored by Agrupación de Influencia (Influence Group) which was recently formed by 4 Mexican business leaders, Craig Williams and Campus Crusade for Christ in Mexico City which operates as Enfoque Mexico. 32 business leaders responded as wanting to be involved in transforming Mexico for Jesus Christ. 6 businessmen prayed to receive Christ. Yes, even some interested unbelievers were invited and God changed their lives for all of eternity!!!
August 26: Our next organizing meeting to get ready for the big kickoff meeting on September 2 when we will invite over 20 Christian business leaders who signed a commitment card to attend a meeting and commit to being personally involved in transforming Mexico City for Jesus Christ. Pray for clarity as we communicate vision and mission of Agrupación de Influencia and how we all together can focus on reaching business people for Christ and doing projects that will benefeit Mexico City in order to bring many to Christ. THE TASK IS HUGE! THE CHALLENGE IS AWESOME!
Pray for:
Sept 2: The first big kickoff meeting to bring these business leaders onto the team and work together to transform Mexico City for Jesus Christ! A strong leadership team will form from the Sept 2 meeting. We all will have clarity of vision and mission to reach the city. We will be unified. These men will lay aside other priorities they have had in their lives to follow the priorities of Jesus Christ to make an impact for the Kingdom.
Praise the Lord for such a great response. Thanks for the list of how we can pray for Sept 2.
