The Pomares Family

 in Partnership with CRU

Who are we? 

Campus Crusade for Christ (Cru)
Cru is a global Christian evangelism and discipleship ministry with a mission to help people "win, build, and send" new followers of Jesus Christ. While it began with a focus on college campuses, its work has expanded to encompass a wide range of ministries, including those for athletes, military personnel, and families. The organization also provides humanitarian aid globally through its Unto ministry and produces the "Jesus" film, which has been translated into over 2,100 languages for global outreach.

Liz & Luis Pomares
We have served with Cru for the last 16 years, most recently in Mexico City, a city with a population of approximately 8 million people, 400 universities, and a great need for Jesus to be shared with everyone. Our heart and passion is to share the good news about Jesus among college students, help them grow, and learn how to do the same. We serve with a team of 6 staff and are working to start new movements in more universities throughout the city.

Our  Mission

Cru's ultimate goal is to create spiritual movements everywhere so that everyone has the opportunity to know someone who truly follows Jesus. Together Jon and Cheryl work to support both the global expansion and the foundational campus ministries of the organization.

Celebrations

Join us as we celebrate all God is doing in and through the Pomares's and Cru!

  • On March 22nd we lead an evangelism workshop on La Roca Church in Cuernavaca. We were amazed by the response as 150 people attended! In the workshop participants learned how to prepare and share their personal testimonies, as well as how to present the gospel using the booklet "Would You Like to Know God Personally?" It was an incredible time. One of the most impactful testimonies was that of a member of the church invited a non-believing friend. During the practice time she shared the gospel with her, and in that moment, her friend received Christ as her Lord and Savior. This story, which was shared at the end of the workshop, moved the entire church.
  • In early August, we held our two-week summer mission project here in Mexico City. We had a team of Cru students from other states come to help us with our back-to-school efforts, specifically to reach new students. We had a lot to celebrate—their help gave us a great jump-start for the school year and helped us follow up with new students, share the gospel, and invite them to our meetings and activities.

Prayer Requests 

Let's pray together! 

  • Please pray for the students we met during the summer project—that they will be open and ready to hear the gospel.
  • Please also pray for our first meeting with Cru Jr High, that we can continue to encourage them to know Jesus as their Lord and Savior.
  • Please join us in praying for God´s continued provision for financial support and new ministry partners.

How Can We Help?

With an increase of cost of living in Mexico City, inflation, and an unfavorable exchange rate we have a need to raise $750 USD in monthly support. If you are interested in connecting and hearing more about how you can support us please contact us via email.
