After considerable prayer, study and deliberation the World Missions Committee has approved the Schierkolks to return to Mexico in January. This decision was made following a recommendation from the World Missions Crisis Management Board.
AFLC World Missions and the Schierkolks understand that there is still a considerable amount of violence created by drug cartels in Mexico. With that in mind, it seems that missionaries are not being targeted. Everyone in the Schierkolks immediate family agrees that God is still calling them to work in Mexico and are comfortable with their return in January.
Please keep the Schierkolks in your prayers as they return to Mexico.
