Harvest Time in the Sierra Tarahumara

October 30, 2013

October. Harvest time. For the Tarahumara Indians living in western Chihuahua state in the mountains known as the Sierra Tarahumara, it is a time of gathering in the corn harvest.

As fellow missionary, Allison Lucht, and I were driving out to a Tarahumara Indian settlement north of Chihuahua City for the last day of Vacation Bible School there, she asked if I would give the final talk explaining the Gospel to those present. I was thrilled for the opportunity!

I want...to go to teach the word of God to people who have not heard anything about Christ our savior.” - Vicente

Last month, during the week leading up to Easter Sunday, the team wrapped up teaching a Tarahumara couple & their teenage daughter from Creation to Christ. This family had to walk for miles over the mountains just to come to hear the lessons. The final lesson covers the death, burial & resurrection of Jesus Christ.
