Two Opportunities
To Help Mexican
Work Are Cited
Two excellent opportunities for
churches wishing to help in evan-
gelistic work among Mexican
people were reported this week
by Mack Kercheville of El Paso.
Brother Manuel P. Gutierrez of
Juarez, Mexico, just across the
river from El Paso needs about
150.00 per month more support.
. He is being supported at present
by about five different congrega-
tions which send their contribu-
tions to him direct, and to which
he makes regular monthly re-
ports. One of these congregations
is dropping out because of other
work.
