After the apprenticeship in Puebla, we went to the state of Michoacán. News from Michoacán is most often about the serious problems posed by drug cartels impacting many lives and destroying so many others. However, there are parents and church leaders there working to transform their communities.

Alejandro teaching

Two churches in Pátzcuaro, Michoacán, now have AMO Programs for children. Our work began at Casa de Gloria Church in 2013 when Alejandro and Veronica Magno, church pastors, attended an AMO Apprenticeship. With help from members of Westlake Hills Presbyterian Church of Austin, Texas, they continue to serve meals and lessons to thirty-five children from some of the poorest neighborhoods in the city. They are praying for a move to a more central location in the city and to expand the children’s ministry. In 2014 we took the AMO Apprenticeship to Pátzcuaro to add support to their ministry. This led to a second program in the city at El Divino Redentor Church downtown. This is a small church with vision and passion that is growing and we look forward to working with them.

Bible reading for reasoning

When Alejandro and Veronica first began AMO two years ago, chaos ruled the classes. Now, there is a complete turn-around. The children are orderly, enjoy learning, and respect each others participation. While there is still room for improvement in how the children behave outside of class, parents comment that they see a change and many children have been helped.

To help parents affirm, at home, the biblical principles taught through AMO, we held a workshop for the them. Alejandro and Francelia took turns encouraging and teaching the parents scripture relating to Christian self-government, God’s individuality, Christian character, and more. For most, the concepts were completely new. Several have become very excited about taking the AMO Apprenticeship when it next becomes available. We’re making plans to return in 2016. Until then, we’ll continue walking with the leaders giving them encouragement to further implement God’s principles for education and discipleship.

Learning to think like Christ

Please, pray for these families and programs for continued success and expanding influence in their communities. Pray for Alejandro and Veronica as they discern the next move for the ministry. Pray for Isis Olivares and Margarita Reyes who are heading up the program in central Patzcuaro.

Thank you and blessings to each of you.

Dear Friends,

Last week, we completed the AMO® Apprenticeship in the city of Puebla, about two hours southeast of Mexico City. This was our very first apprenticeship in this historic city. The dedication and passion of those we trained was inspiring and we’ve been invited back to involve more key ministries and churches, next year.

Another great “first” was the introduction of Esther Suarez, one of our four Mexican AMO teachers who are training to become certified AMO Trainers of Teachers (TOT’s) in Mexico. Esther

joined us from Oaxaca to practice teaching and to continue being mentored in AMO. She, and the other three trainees (Elizabeth Bermúdez, Gloria Viveros, and Elizabeth “Ely” Aguilar), are making wonderful progress and we thank God for these new leaders! We look forward to them conducting their own AMO Apprenticeships in the future.

Attending, last week, were representatives of five churches, one organization for abused women and children, and one university professor. The professor, Liliana, plans to begin an AMO Program in her home for the children of her university students. Two women, Judith and Erika, who help abused women and children, expressed that the principles they learned will be invaluable in their work. A few in the class even expressed desires to begin their own schools, incorporating the biblical principles they learned.

We met each day at the Biblical Seminary of Puebla where our host ministry, Club Neón, a children’s program directed by Diana Torres, is housed. Our friends, Ed and Lois Oglesby, lifetime missionaries in Mexico, gave us warm lodging and meals for the week in their home near the seminary.

We would like to invite you to visit México with us to meet some of the parents, teachers and church leaders involved in this ministry. Puebla would be a great place to visit and meet those just getting started with AMO. Easy to access, Puebla is a place of modern growth and fascinating history.

For instance, the first public library in Mexico, Biblioteca Palafoxiana, was established here in 1646. Its founder, Juan de Palafox y Mendoza, was a strong advocate of education. Unfortunately, and for

specific reasons related to the rejection of God in education, the majority of the children in the nation today receive poor education that ignores the heart, divides the mind, and helps lead to fatalism and other destructive worldviews. There are also many museums in the city that can help you better understand the nation of today. Contact us to make plans.

With your help, more and more families and local churches are taking charge of their education and placing the Master Teacher – Jesus Christ – at the center of learning and teaching. They are also re-engaging biblical principles that guide and inspire children and parents, alike. We ask for your continued prayers and financial support for this work.

We also invite your support for the training of our four TOT students. Contact us, the McReynolds, at mexico@amoprogram.com or (830) 719-5812 for more information.

In the Fall we will be dedicating time to visit those in the United States who would like to discuss with us this work in México. Please, contact us if you, or your congregation, would like to meet with us.

Thanks and blessings to each of you. We hope we can visit!

In Christ,

Chris and Francelia

Class discussion continues during coffee-breaks in Puebla.

Puebla’s first AMO apprentices!

(See photos at bottom)

Last week we trained thirty-two, very motivated, parents and church leaders in Comalcalco, Tabasco, Mexico. This was our fourth trip to the state this year with another planned for September.

Six churches and at least twenty different families were represented. It is always a joy and blessing to spend the week getting to know each person and, although it’s sad to say goodbye, we can look forward to staying in contact to continue discipling them in their renewed role as educators.

Our visit here last May sparked enormous interest in having this AMO® Apprenticeship. Leaders from other churches who are planning with us for future apprenticeships were present to learn, first-hand, what their congregations can expect when we train in their area.

From the participants evaluations and comments, we could tell that all twenty-five sessions of the apprenticeship provided new insights and inspiration. The sessions on Christian Self-government and The Power of Blessing Children seemed to have the greatest impact. Many participants had no memory of every being intentionally blessed by their father so, Pastor Salomon Bautista blessed each one (see photo).

Since true liberty comes only from Christ governing our hearts, the Christian Self-government session captivated everyone. Participants described families and even whole congregations caught in cycles of ill-health, bad finances, and deteriorating relationships because “everyone did as they saw fit” without submitting to the Lordship of Jesus Christ in daily decisions.

Something new that we tried was to have an abbreviated AMO class for the children of the parents attending our apprenticeship. The children were taught by Mariana Chavez, Francelia’s sister, who used two guides from the AMO curriculum, The Book of Proverbs: Reading for Reasoning and Joel, A Boy of Galilee. The children loved the lessons and insisted to their parents to continue reading Joel, at home after the week was done.

We ask for your prayers or these families in Comalcalco as they implement their children’s programs using AMO. We also ask for your prayers for us as we travel to Puebla, Puebla, Mexico, this coming week to teach another AMO Apprenticeship there.

Thanks to each of you for your prayers and support. Drop us a line anytime at mexico@amoprogram.com or give us a call at (830) 719-5812, we love hearing from you!

In Christ,

Chris and Francelia

In our visits, the past two months, to churches and households along the way from Mexico City to Mérida, Yucatán, the unmistakable common interest we saw was a heartfelt desire by parents for their children to live out God’s truth, beauty, and goodness. Time and again, parents responded passionately to the call to devote more time in the home (and at church) for teaching their children biblical principles and Christian character.

Geography in Bible study! ~ Campeche

As Francelia taught and preached, parents were called to look at their nation. A nation’s health reflects the health of its families.* Some wept. Many prayed on bended knees for God’s guidance and forgiveness. In a time when many blame the government, the president, or an endless list of other things, the parents we met expressed a desire to make their nation healthier by beginning with their own families. The AMO® Program is helping parents do just that.

The program is being embraced by churches and parents in a growing number of places across Mexico, but there are challenges, of course. It is not a simple thing to change traditional patterns of how we “do education” in the church. And it’s a challenge to include intentional Christian education in the home with the many distractions of modern life. And, of course, the enemy, Satan, does not sit quietly by when families determine to follow God in every area of their lives. However, people are responding with determination.

Parents praying for God’s restoration of families ~ Orizaba, Veracruz

In response, we’ve added an additional AMO Apprenticeship to our 2015 schedule for Comalcalco, Tabasco, to take place just before the apprenticeship in Puebla, next month. Leaders and parents in Comalcalco, and surrounding communities, responded with such resolve to be trained that we felt we had to do something, soon.

The vision for wholistic biblical Christian education is expanding to, more and more, families and churches and your prayers are part of that. A new determination to obey Christ’s command to make disciples is taking hold and prayers of protection are needed. Everywhere we go in Mexico, people are encouraged and thankful to hear that they have brothers and sisters in the United States who are praying for them.

• We ask for your prayers for the many families and churches who are receiving God’s vision for building healthy culture for families and the nation — one child, one parent, one family, one church, one community, at a time.
• Continue to pray for the ongoing AMO Trainer of Teachers course to produce more AMO trainers in various Latin American countries, including Mexico. Pray for those from Mexico, now in month three of the nine-month course – Gloria Viveros, Elizabeth Bermúdez, Elizabeth “Ely” Aguirre, and Esther Suárez. These women are very busy serving their families, the church, and in other areas, in addition to studying AMO. If you would like to help underwrite their studies with a financial gift(s), please, contact Elizabeth Youmans at eyoumans@chrysalisinternational.org
• Concerning the United States, we join with all of you in praying for God’s will to be done concerning the many difficulties facing the nation.
• We thank God for our many wonderful hosts along the way, these past two months, who shared with us their excellent meals, wonderful homes, gracious prayer and exemplary love of Christ!
• We give thanks to God that the violence in Chiapas, Oaxaca, and Guerrero, meant to block elections earlier this month, did not spread much further.

Below, we’ve added photos to tell a little more of the story of these past two months.  Thanks, to each of you, for your continued prayers and support.

In Christ,

Chris and Francelia Chavez McReynolds

San Francisco de Campeche, the state capital of Campeche, was our next stop after the AMO Apprenticeship in Mérida, Yucatán. We spent the last week of May visiting church leaders, teaching at congregational activities, and encouraging those who had received AMO training in the past. Many are inspired and determined.

Geography lessons as we study the Bible

Minerva Chan Lopez has been working hard implementing AMO since she was trained in 2013. It has been difficult. As leaders of her small church diverted resources, and focus, to adult programs for a plan to build up the church, Minerva and her helpers soldiered on in teaching the children without much support – morally or materially. With our visit, we were able to help the congregation gain a greater vision for the children and to invite them to our AMO workshop later in the week. The pastor and several members attended and became inspired and determined to help. Minerva is now receiving greater support for the children and plans are for more church members to be trained in AMO.

At the largest Presbyterian church in the city, Monte de los Olivos, the leaders wanted to improve their education plan. Catechism and Creeds and Confessions made up, in its entirety, their multi-year curriculum. The material was heavy for teachers and students, alike, and leaders questioned the fruit of their efforts. After many hours of discussion with leaders and a conference with parents, plans are being made to add the AMO curriculum. Children will be nurtured with biblical principles for everyday life, reasoning skills for bible study, higher vocabulary, Godly imagination and a love for learning. Catechism will continue to be taught and Creeds and Confessions will be an extension of AMO’s Christian History unit.

We are very encouraged by the vision and desire of our Brothers and Sisters in Campeche and are excited to walk with them in their long-term efforts.

Thank you, for your prayers for our travel.

In Christ,

Chris and Francelia

We ask you to pray for:

• Church leaders in Campeche (and throughout Mexico) as they discern God’s leading in equipping future generations to disciple their families and communities for Christ’s transformation of their nation.
• Minerva as she teaches her young disciples and continues sharing the vision of wholistic biblical Christian education with the parents and her congregation. There is great potential to reach hundreds of children and their families, by even the smallest of churches, when everyone has the same vision and commitment. Pray for us as we help with that.
• Pray for mid-term elections in Mexico this Sunday. Three candidates in Oaxaca, Guerrero and the state of Mexico, have been killed, so far. Radical, violent, Teacher’s Union groups have destroyed election offices and ballots in Oaxaca and elsewhere vowing to block elections as they continue in their protest of the 2013 Education Reforms. These reforms require testing in order to be employed instead of inheriting or purchasing teaching positions, as in the past. Pray for authorities to follow through and enforce the reforms rather than give in to threats or bribes.

Historic Campeche, on the Gulf coast, was fortified against pirate raiders. It’s protective gates are useful for illustrating how AMO empowers parents against ungodly attacks and influences on their children, helping them to fulfill God’s purpose and potential for their lives.

“In my many years as a teacher in Christian education, I’ve never been presented a vision so complete as to how we should teach,” wrote one participant evaluating the recent AMO® Apprenticeship in Mérida, Yucatán, México. Each evening, for two weeks, parents, seminary students, and church leaders met at El Divino Salvador Presbyterian church, downtown, to listen, discuss, experience and practice a “new” kind of education. Education based on biblical Christian principles that have blessed families and individuals throughout the ages. Principles derived from God’s individuality, Christian self-government, stewardship, Christian character, the arts, and more.

Omar and Zugeilly Hau Yah, a young couple who attended the apprenticeship, are now implementing this education with their children, at home. Other’s will begin teaching in their churches and some will use what they learned as they enter pastoral or mission service. We were pleased to have five students join us from San Pablo Seminary, in Mérida.

Children of Gethsemani Church in Mérida, Yucatán

Pastor Aldo Chalé and, wife, Rubí Hernández, lead Gethsemane Presbyterian church, across town. Leaders at Gethsemane were the first to implement AMO in Mérida. “We’ve seen good progress in the children in terms of their participation and Christian self-government” says Rubí. “They really enjoy their classes,” she added.

Two Presbyteries in Yucatán were represented by pastors who took the training. They have requested that we return in 2016 with a plan to invite all the churches of their presbyteries.

We are very excited by what we see God doing in the Yucatán Peninsula and how He is stirring in the hearts of parents and leaders for renewal in wholistic biblical Christian education for families and the churches. Please, pray for the vision to spread throughout the Peninsula.

We are very thankful for your prayers and support.

In Christ,

Chris and Francelia

Additional Points for Prayer:

• Please, pray for this newly trained group as they implement their programs.
• Pray for God to raise up an AMO Trainer for the Yucatán.
• Continue to pray for our four Mexican AMO Trainer candidates – Ely, Elizabeth, Gloria and Esther – who are in their third month of the nine month course to become trainers.
• Please, pray for our safety as we continue our travels through southeast Mexico, teaching and visiting programs. Pray, especially, for Francelia’s voice as she teaches for many hours.
• We join everyone in praying for flooding to cease and for the recovery for those who’ve suffered from the storms in Mexico and the United States.

Leaders at “Nueva Jerusalen” Presbyterian Church in Villahermosa, Tabasco, Mexico, are determined to reach the youth of their church and community with the whole Gospel of Jesus Christ. In their well-organized campaign, Operation Rescue, youths are encouraged to enroll in classes at the church designed to nurture their God-given gifts and talents. Bible, theatre arts, literature, and music are the first classes being offered, with more to come. Sessions on restoration and biblical counseling are also starting.

Joaquin Barrientos, one of the older leaders at the church, has a youthful heart and a vision for the future. Six months ago, he and his team of young leaders invited Francelia to speak to the youth at their kick-off event this month. “There are so many, young and old, who have drifted away from the Faith. We have to do something to get them back” says Joaquin.

Youth in Villahermosa responding to the call to follow Jesus Christ with their whole lives

One hundred-thirty youths listened intently as Francelia taught the basic biblical principles and ideas that we teach through AMO®. Grabbing their attention, were principles such as ‘God’s individuality is reflected in each of us,’ and ‘Christ governing within us is the only way to experience true liberty.” At the end of the morning the youths were invited to devote, or re-devote, their lives to Jesus Christ. Almost all responded by coming forward to pray!

Reaching the youth in Tabasco

After a very nice lunch, the youths were then introduced to the teachers who would lead the class of their interest each Sunday for weeks to come. The emphasis in these classes is that God is Lord of every part of our lives, including the society we live in and, because of that, we can flourish and fulfill the purposes and potential God has for each of us as we follow Him. Married couples are also part of Operation Rescue.

Couples from the community and area churches were invited to a formal dinner. This included a wonderful singing duo and presentation by Francelia on many of the same biblical principles that were presented to the youth. One of the teachings that provoked special interest was on the divided mind. That we all struggle with a divided mind or, live as if some areas of our lives and society are not important to God, cripples us. “This has been very challenging and helpful for us, we really need more courses like this in the church” commented one young couple.

In response to the leaders and participants, we are facilitating a September conference at Nueva Jerusalen by our friend in ministry, José Gonzalez. José is the author of Machismo and Matriarchy: Toxic roots that blight the Latin American culture. He specializes in helping couples apply God’s wisdom and purpose in marriage. Also, we are planning an AMO Apprenticeship for parents and teachers here in 2016.

Gethsemani Church AMO Program in Mérida, Yucatán

Points for Prayers:

• Pray for the children and youth of this community, and those throughout México. Pray for inspired education and Godly guidance amidst the sea of humanist, socialist, materialist, etc., teachings and influences in schools, society, and entertainment media.

Just as a side-note…On a visit this weekend to a local art exhibit of six different artists, the majority of the fifty-plus paintings explicitly depicted satanism and death. Also, in the hit movie Avengers, now in theatres in Mexico, one of the heroes is ridiculed for calling attention to his partner’s use of vulgar language. This may pale in comparison to most of the lies and vulgarity flowing out of Hollywood but, it’s interesting to note how — in an instant — millions of children and youths receive a lesson that vulgar language is not to be criticized. Young people are up against poor education, deceptive media, drug gangs, corruption and many other challenges. The children need our prayers and most energetic and inspired support.

• Pray for parents and church leaders everywhere, to seek God’s wisdom and strength for living as disciples of Jesus Christ, in every area of life, and for passing that Faith on to the next generations.

Thank you, for your prayers and support.

In Christ,

Chris and Francelia

Children from the neighborhood learning vocabulary and biblical principles with Damariz

Teachers in Cunduacán, Tabasco, are working hard to transform Christian education for their students and families in these hot and humid coastal lands of southeast Mexico. Since December, when the teachers trained with us, they’ve been busy implementing the AMO Program. Their plans are ambitious. Not only do they want AMO for children, but also for youth, adults, new believers, and non-believers. The challenges and triumphs have been, and continue to be, many.

As we visited the area for a few days last week, Priscilla Torres, Director of Christian Education at Jesus, La Luz del Mundo church, told us that their students are benefitting, wonderfully, from their AMO classes. Children have improved their reading and Christian self-government skills. Interest in education at the church has increased. Many families, eager to participate, have become punctual in arriving — a true rarity!

In addition, adults express new-found hope in biblical Christian principles that they had never contemplated before. The youths are being challenged to reason and engage their Christian faith and not simply go along with pop-culture and social pressures. One working couple, professionals, decided to cut back on the hours they work to devote more time to the education of their children. All these triumphs and more have not come easy.

The church has twelve mission churches in Cunduacán and the surrounding communities. While a dozen of its teachers have trained with us, there are still more than sixty who have not had the AMO training. Also, some of the leaders do not have the vision. This has made implementing the program a challenge.

Families responding to Francelia’s call for renewed efforts for inspired education at church and in the home.

Many do not understand the objectives of AMO – to bring every area of our lives under the Lordship of Jesus Christ, principally, through inspired wholistic biblical Christian education. Families and their churches are challenged to begin retaking dominion of their children’s education. For most, the study of classic literature, government, history, vocabulary, geography, art, and more, is foreign to church classrooms. AMO provides a way to change that and the small group in Cunudacán wants to share that with others.

Damariz Coyoc Rivero disciples forty-five children and their families from neighbourhoods around Monte de los Olivos, one of the mission churches of Jesus La Luz del Mundo. These families do not attend any church and Damariz is on fire for the education of these children. “One of my students,” says Damariz of seven-year old, Ismael, “could not read and had no interesting in learning. He is from a very dysfunctional family and was very discouraged. After a month of being with the other children in their joy and engagement in the class, he has begun trying to read. He pays special attention during our class of Proverbs and he has been encouraged since we studied the word potential and that God has given him great potential.” (Key-word studies are an important part of AMO.)

Points for Prayer:

• Please, pray for the families in Cunduacán and surrounding communities that they continue receiving education that inspires and equips them in the wonderful purpose and potential that God has for each of their lives.
• Pray for the congregations, the families, teachers and leaders, that they continue to understand AMO more completely and embrace the call to wholistic biblical Christian education for the transformation of families, communities and the nation.
• Pray for AMO México as we continue to walk with those in Cunduacán and provide additional training for them and many others throughout Mexico.
• Please, also continue to pray for the more than twenty AMO teachers from various countries in Latin America who are currently taking the AMO Trainer of Teachers (TOT) course so they can become qualified to train more teachers for AMO. Pray for Ely, Elizabeth, Gloria and Esther, our Mexican TOT students. Pray for their instructors and for everyone’s computer and internet connection needs during this nine-month online course.

Thank you for your prayers and support!

In Christ,

Chris and Francelia
