FROM WITCHCRAFT TO CHRIST
How a group of remote Totonac Indians in Mexico were reached with the Gospel by native evangelists

ZITLALA, MEXICO  (ANS) -- A group of native evangelists working amongst the remote Totonac Indians in Mexico has seen a family turn from witchcraft to Christ.

Dr. Dale W. Kietzman, founder of president of Latin American Indian Ministries based in Pasadena, California, revealed the extraordinary story in a recent message to supporters.

“The work among the Native Americans throughout Latin America continues to grow, with the Indian believers themselves taking the initiative in spreading the Gospel,” he said. “Your gift helps them with necessary expenses for literature, travel and so on. But they are the evangelists, spreading the Gospel to those who have never heard.”

Kietzman then translated a report that has come in from one evangelistic band, which has been visiting repeatedly, all the homes in the little rancheria of Zitlala, in the Totonac Sierra of Mexico.

The report said, “The workers that have the responsibility for the church being planted in Zitlala, report a new family has joined the group meeting every Sunday. When first contacted, the family had been very involved in Witchcraft. They said that they spent all they earned working in the fields, and even their chickens and turkeys, all paid to the witchdoctors, who promised them that all the problems the family faced would be resolved.

“They were never able to eat meat, or to buy clothes, yet they realized that, week by week, their situation was getting worse. They were feeling more and more desperate when the evangelists began to visit their home every week. It was an opportune moment when the evangelists explained the Gospel. They listened, and sensing relief from their problems, they accepted Christ. Now they are attending the meetings. Thanks be to God for the work of these evangelists!”

Kietzman, who is also a founding board member of ASSIST Ministries, added, “The report goes on to note that the number of children being taught on Saturday continues to grow. These families do not have a government school their children can attend, so the Saturday classes attract most of the children in town. The need for school books and supplies is very great, and we scrounge to meet their needs.

“We value your prayers for situations such as this.”

"Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief in teaching, practice, worship and observance."

--Article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights--

Christian Conversions - According to the Bible - Can NEVER be forced.

Any Conversion to Christianity which would be "Forced" would NOT be recognized by God. It is in His True and KIND nature, that those who come to Him and choose to believe in Him, must come to Him OF THEIR OWN FREE WILL.



Don't Let anyone tell you that Christians support Forced Conversions.

That is False. True Christianity is NEVER forced.
