Roger Audorff

Mexico

Roger and Debbi Audorff want to help Mexico become a sending nation for missions, and they believe that with proper training, this will be able to happen. While the immediate spiritual battle is with the Mormons and Jehovah’s Witnesses—Roger and Debbi believe that the Catholics in Monterrey could realize that God’s Word is for them to live out in their daily lives. However, idol worship of Guadalupe is prevalent in the city among the Catholic population, and the Audorffs are praying for the spirit of idolatry to be broken by the name of Jesus. Monterrey is also home to much poverty and has had many recent problems with drug trafficking.

During this period we are working with YWAM to do an online English and culture class. Leticia just finished the class and Colin was a staff member, and in January we will both be staffing the school. The school teaches English and gives people a place to practice and learn free of judgment, while also teaching them about the differences in cultures and how different cultures show different aspects of God's character.
