Focus
Efrain is the current National Coordinator for Simply Mobilizing Mexico, Coordinator for New Nations Cuba, and the International Latin America Regional Team Training Coordinator.
Barbara has been an SM Mobilizer since 2016 and is part of the Mexico National Coordinating Team, New Nations Cuba Coordinating Team, and the Latin America International Region Training Team.
As a family, they have facilitated Simply Mobilizing resources throughout the Mexican Republic and supported the developing teams in Latin America in person and virtually.
They have embraced the vision of seeing the whole Church in Latin America mobilized to be on Mission with God, developing missional churches, and multiplying mobilizers.
The most challenging project they face today is to promote the movement in Cuba, which presents economic challenges but has enormous potential for workers for the Mission.
