Is not this the fast that I have chosen? To loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? When thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh? Isaiah 58:6-7 |
As you include Border Missions in your prayers, please specifically ask that the monthly operating expenses might be met. Border Missions has only spartan expenses but even these are not currently being covered. We know that God is able and that as His people yield themselves to Him through prayer and sacrificial giving this immediate and heavy burden can be lifted. |
- Mission Synopsis -
|
The work continues today under the direction of Jerry and Albertia McKnight. The McKnights assumed the directorate in July 2010 following that of Glenda Atcheson who continues to serve Border Missions as a member of the Board of Directors.
The McKnights are from Mt. Enterprise, Texas, a small town in northeast Texas. Jerry's first mission experience was over twenty years ago while he was an associate pastor in the Houston, Texas area. He accompanied a missionary and helped in giving out food and clothing to the people of a very poor village near San Franando, Mexico. From that very first mission outreach God placed in his heart a love for the Mexican people and a burden to help them. Albertia joined in this burden, and from that point on trips were planned to Mexico as often as possible, bringing mission groups, helping to build churches, supplying food and clothing, and most importantly bringing the love of Christ to all that would listen. |
In 2003, knowing that God was calling them to Mexico, they both quit their secular jobs and moved to the Rio Grande Valley to work full time with a ministry in Mexico. Since that time, they have had the opportunity of helping to build a Bible School and several churches in the interior of Mexico.
The McKnights thank God for the privilege of being directors of Border Missions where they can continue to serve the Lord thru supplying the physical and spiritual needs to those on both sides of the border.
Thanks to each one who is able to help us with clothing as well as monetary donations to keep this work ever moving forward!
