Mouser Missions Update – Page 5 – Missionary 265 with World Indigenous Missions

My name is Ron Mouser and I am the Director of Mobilization and Training for World Indigenous Missions.

I moved to Mexico in 1997 to help plant a church. Later, my wife and I worked extensively in youth and children’s ministry, church planting, discipleship courses, and ministry training in the jungle region of Chiapas, Mexico, near the Guatemalan border. We joined WIM in 2012 seeking to be part of a larger family of missionaries.

In 2019, I officially joined the WIM staff and although my family and I miss working in the villages of Mexico, my current position allows me to be part of what God is doing around the world. I am very passionate about raising up modern-day pioneers to reach the nations.

If you are interested in exploring missions for the first time, an independent missionary with years of experience or somewhere in between – WIM is here to serve you.

"It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat."

- Theodore Roosevelt Jr., 26th President of the United States -
"'Not called!' did you say? 'Not heard the call,' I think you should say. Put your ear down to the Bible, and hear Him bid you go and pull sinners out of the fire of sin. Put your ear down to the burdened, agonized heart of humanity, and listen to its pitiful wail for help. Go stand by the gates of hell, and hear the damned entreat you to go to their father's house and bid their brothers and sisters and servants and masters not to come there. Then look Christ in the face -- whose mercy you have professed to obey -- and tell Him whether you will join heart and soul and body and circumstances in the march to publish His mercy to the world.

- William Booth -
"He is no fool who gives up what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose"

- Jim Elliot -
"Sympathy is no substitute for action."

- David Livingstone -
For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!”

- Romans 10:13-15 (ESV) -
"And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. (19) Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: (20) Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen."

- Matthew 28:18-20 -

No Free Ride

Faith

March 11, 2010 by Ivonne Mouser

We have a brother in our church that everytime you ask him how he is doing, he answers "Thank God, I'm doing well". What a faith statement because this brother is battling cancer and it is obvious that the chemo has taken a toll on his body. Wednesday night we found him walking home…

As I was walking out of the church on Valentine's day my husband informed me a family had come to visit from another town and he wanted to have them over for lunch. I immediately said, "no way!" A flood of thoughts came in "I have other plans, I don't even…

Religion vs. Relationship

February 7, 2010 by Ivonne Mouser

Something that we talk about a lot in our home and at the orphanage is our desire to see the children have a relationship with Jesus and not just gain a religion with a set of rules that they can never meet. Sadly, I've met plenty of people who grew…
