How the Gospel is Spread in Mexico:
In Mexico, the International Mission Board (IMB) spreads the gospel through street chalking. This artwork draws the attention of people walking by. Observers of this artwork are often curious about the chalk art, which creates opportunities for the IMB team to strike up conversations with people. IMB have found people are open to talking when asked questions like “Do you know what the artist is chalking? Do you know about the Good Shepherd? What do you think about God, the world, the future?”
Street chalking as a way of spreading the gospel is not limited to Mexico. Imagine how many people could be introduced to the gospel around the world if more people implemented street chalking as a form of evangelism!

Hint For Next Week’s Location:
Guess where Paula will be next week using the clue below!
Pack your bags, don’t ask why,
A secret waits beneath the sky.
Follow the clues, let’s play the game,
A land of spice shall earn its name.
Where colors dance and temples rise,
A peacock struts beneath the skies.
You’ll taste the curry, feel the heat,
And hear the rhythm in the street.
