Antonio Estrada, president of the Hispanic Baptist Convention of Texas, said the keys to the developing relationship are shared vision and a sense that all involved are equal partners. Estrada said there are 56 indigenous groups in Mexico, and nearly two dozen of those people groups remain unreached by the Christian gospel. He also pointed out that there are more than 6 million Hispanics in Texas -- roughly one-third of the state's total population -- and a sizeable number are not evangelical Christians.
Baptist leaders in Mexico are interested in a relationship with Texas Baptists that will be mutually beneficial, not paternalistic. "They want to work with us as partners and for us to look them in the eyes as brothers in Christ," said Estrada, pastor of Iglesia Bautista South Main in Houston.
Leadership exchange would be a key component of the partnership. Estrada announced a proposed plan to invite 1,000 Baptist preachers from Mexico to come to Texas to lead evangelistic crusades in Hispanic Texas Baptist churches.
He also mentioned the possibility of working closely with Baptist seminaries in Mexico City and Oxaca to enhance theological training and ministerial training.
Officials from the National Baptist Convention of Mexico plan to attend the Hispanic Baptist Convention of Texas in El Paso, June 24-26.
