"And I will praise the Lord," declared the psalmist. When the presence of the Lord is manifested, all attention is on Him. We as ministers have done what the Lord commanded us, and that is to bring people into His presence. There is real hunger for spiritual things due to the crisis here and the violence, and we are there with the life-changing Gospel of Jesus Christ. Signs, wonders, healings, and miracles are happening along with many people giving their lives to the Lord. Also in the month of August, I had the joy of leading my parents to the Lord. God is so good!
This is my youngest daughter Ana pictured next to me; we are out ministering the Word. I am very happy that both my daughters are showing interest in going to Bible School after college. It proves that our prayers avail greatly.
We have also begun a new church plant in a village called "On the Edge of the Ocean." We have bought all the material for the foundation and will be buying more material as the work progresses. The cost of the church is 4000 dollars, and if you feel the Lord would have you be a channel in meeting this need, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Ron
The vision has increased! The vision that the Lord gave me 28 years ago is becoming more of a reality each day. My heart's desire is to take this Gospel to the ends of the earth and declare, "Jesus is Lord." We have been holding crusades every month and seeing many peopel giving their lives to Christ. Plus, our pastors' seminars that are held bi-monthly are a tremendous time of learning and growing in God. We conduct revivals on a regular basis in local churches with the focus on strengthening the local believers, mentoring and supporting the pastor.
In the last days the Lord will pour out his Spirit on all flesh.
One of my greatest joys is in ministering the Word to hungry hearts and literally spiritual
hunger is everywhere. Doors have opened all over Mexico to do just that. I have lived
where it was very hard to minister and now to be a part of this great end time harvest
that is occurring is a lot of fun, work and excitement. What Satan had intended for
harm, all the upheaval due to drug wars adn the bad economy have people open spiritually
and more important seeking. We are endeavoring to be there and set them free with the
power of God.
Family Update
Sara, my oldest is now in college and is studying international business, and Ana is still
in high school. Both are fine. Maria is still getting all the chemo out of her system,
but is doing well and we thank God.

"And these signs shall follow those that believe." We have literally taken this passage to heart and have been praying for the sick, the despised and demon possessed and have seen how mightily the Lord has moved in their lives. Our prayer and faith is to continue to do the works of Jesus. God is working with us as we take the Gospel to those still seated in darkness. I do have a special prayer request for musical instruments. Guitars, keyboards, amps, and drums, or anythingn else would be put to use in the kingdom. I will be on itineration in August and September and would love to bless the brethren with some equipment here in Mexico.
Hunger for the presence of the Lord and for the Word is evident in the lives of these men and women as we held a believers' meeting a short while ago. It's a tremendous feeling of accomplishment to be part of planting a number of churches and then to see them flourishing as the Lord adds people to them. Presently I am preaching 6 or 7 times a week. It can be quite draining, but the Lord has new open doors and we want to be faithful and walk through them. Our traveling ministsry continues to grow on both sides of the border and more important is that new souls are being added to the kingdom. A short while ago I was ministering in a prison and a young murderer gave his life to Christ. It was such a miracle that the testimony was heard throughout the prison. Thank you for making it all happen, because without you it would be very difficult and the work would suffer.
God Bless
Ron
As a participant in what God is doing in the lives of the people of Mexico, it has been a great privilege. A short while ago, I was in the southern state of Veracruz ministering to the Aztec Indians and I was amazed at how receptive they were as the Holy Spirit moved powerfully in their lives. The Lord healed, bonds of wickedness were broken, and--more important--new souls came into the Kingdom of God.
This month I have begun my 24th year of full time ministry here in Mexico. It has been an effective, fruitful time. Thousands of souls have been added to the kingdom, more than 25 churches have been established, many have been healed, and even more have been set free by the power of God. We give Him all the praise and glory.
Pictured here is my wife sharing her testimony and giving God all the glory because after several bouts with cancer, she won the battle. Satan sought to destroy, but it only opened a door of ministry to touch many women who are confronting this terrible disease--many of whom are without Christ. She has been very effective in ministering peace, hope, and salvation to these distraught and hopeless women.
As always it's an honor partnering with you in taking the Gospel to the multitudes who are still seated in darkness waiting to be set free. I want to say with your help we are leading many new souls out of the fires of Hell and into the Kingdom of Peace.
Thank you!
Ron
As 2009 has begun we were able to finish several churches that were started in 2008. Our latest project is a new church plant in an area that has been dominated by sin and crime. Many people that live there have been living in fear without any hope—the perfect place for the message of Christ to be preached. A dedicated group of men came from Blue Springs, MO to donate time, energies and finances to help put the roof on. As you can see, it’s a beautiful church and now the Gospel is being preached and the people have a place to find salvation and worship the Lord.
Our crusades, revivals, and outreaches to both the city and the villages have been bringing new souls into the kingdom of God on a continual basis. Being part of what God is doing in Mexico is a privilege and taking the Good News to those seated in darkness. I can testify that the fields are white unto harvest and we are busy harvesting souls. You are very important in helping to fulfill the Great Commission of our Lord.
God Bless and thank you!
Ron
Even though the times we are living are difficult, the Lord is still doing great and mighty things. We received a very positive report concerning my wife's battle with cancer. As of right now she is cancer free but will be needing two more treatments of chemo because the doctor wants to be sure this terrible disease has been eliminated completely. Even though this was a very trying and stressful time, the work of the Lord continued as we were able to complete several new churches. The one pictured above was started approximately two years ago in the town of the Cruillas (northern Mexico) and a short time ago was finished with generous help from a church close to Houston, Texas.
I wish to thank you for your prayers and giving in helping to expand the kingdom of God here in Mexico. As you can see, the children are hungry for the Lord. We want to be there with the Gospel before Satan destroys them. Pray for us as we take changing message to those still waiting to hear.
God Bless
Ron Walicki
Even though 2008 was a difficult year health-wise, we knew the Lord was always with us as we battled with my wife's health. Satan was intent was to take her life but wasn't able to, and in turn it opened many doors for her to minister to the lives of women battling with cancer. These women are scared and uncertain of where they will spend eternity--a perfect environment to share the love of Jesus. Many have given their lives to Jesus. My wife has finished her chemo and in 3 weeks will be going for another test to determine if she will need radiation or not. All these treatments and tests are expensive and if the Lord would lay on your heart to help out financially, it would be greatly appreciated.
Hard work using shovels, picks and a lot of desire to have their own church motivates these brothers to go the extra mile. We are currently involved in two church constructions and I can testify even though they are a lot of work and sacrifice the dividends they pay are enormous. Having a place to worship and find God has no price. Even though many of the members have little income they give sacrificially wanting do their part in their building church.
I wish to thank you for your dedication, prayers and giving in helping to expand the kingdom of God here in Mexico. As you can see the new church has a long was to go and will be needing extra finances. Please pray and see if the Lord would use to be a channel in helping to raise the walls. Even though the world is in a crisis God's kingdom operates on a different system. Pray for us as we take this life changing message to those still waiting to hear.
God Bless

Beginning in January 2008, our efforts were directed towards teaching and training pastors. Training seminars were held in San Fernando, and in Tampico. I believe these types of outreaches are our most effective as the Mexican pastors are being better prepared to minister to their own people. We also began a new church plant in the town of Cruillas and were able to lay all the footings and foundation, which was a big advancement. What really impressed me was the money used for the foundation work came from the Mexican brethren.
During the month of February, we continued building the church in the town of Cruillas and were able to raise the walls and pour all the headers. The church is looking really good and I believe soon we will be pouring a cement roof. We also started another building project in the farming community of "Cualtemoc." The brethren laid the foundation and we were able to come in and lay blocks for the walls ..
During the month of February, I spent a significant amount of time in the states of Veracruz and Puebla visiting the churches where we had established holding revivals and teaching seminars. I am very pleased to see them going on with the Lord and growing and reaching out to the entire community. In March we continued with the church plant in the town of Cualtemoc and we were able to finish the walls. Crusades and teaching seminars were conducted and we extended our ministry throughout the Tampico City area. Our teaching ministry grew in the Victoria area and we were blessed by seeing many grow in the knowledge of the God.
April and May were a busy time for us as we held a series of tent crusades in the Victoria area. The Lord blessed us by adding more souls to the kingdom of heaven. Along with the crusades, teaching seminars were conducted in the towns of La Laguna, Las Norias and in the state of Veracruz.
Work continued on the church in Huauchinango putting on a third floor. June and July we held outreaches at several orphanages both here in Tampico and Victoria. Showing the love of God to forgotten and abused kids is always a tremendous blessing. We gave gifts to each orphan and demonstrated the love of the Lord to them. We also painted the dormitories and fixed doors and other improvements to make there lives a little more blessed. August and September were spent holding youth activities in a number of different cities. All were a tremendous blessing as many people experienced the power of God. Salvations, healings, and repentance were common.
I continued with tent crusades here in Victoria and held revivals all around northern Mexico. Ministry continued throughout the mountains of Veracruz and Puebla strengthening and mentoring pastors as well ministering to the needs of people.
In October I was back in Huauchinango Puebla, and finished putting on the 3rd floor on the church there. They are growing and have solidified.
We held a pastor's seminar in Las Cannas which was a really powerful of ministry. I continued ministering in crusades in San Fernando and we purchased the building material to finish a church there in the city. Together the Lord used us to minister to many hurting people, lead many into salvation, build the church and set the captive free.
Thank you
In my last newsletter I mentioned that we were in the process of putting on a new roof on a church in the town of San Fernando. I've worked on and off with the pastor for more than 20 years and so it was a real privilege to have a part in finishing it. As you can see it looks really good and it’s always a powerful time of ministry when a new church is established as it opens up a new avenue for the Holy Spirit to move upon the people. Also, the brethren in Huauchinango Puebla (where we lived previously) have continued to build a third floor on their church demonstrating that God is mightily at work in their lives.
I wanted to bring you up to date on the health issues facing my wife Maria. Several months ago Maria was diagnosed with cancer and subsequently had an operation and removed the cancerous tumors. In a follow up examination, they found another one on her side and chemo was started and apart from the negative effects of chemo she is doing well and going on with life and ministry. Jesus never promised that we wouldn't have any difficulties but he would be there when we passed through them.
If you would feel the Lord would have you help out with any medical costs it would be greatly appreciated. Again thank you for standing with us both prayerfully and financially. Together we are making a difference in the lives of so many people.
God Bless,
Ron
As you can see by the picture (left), the Mexican brethren have done most of the heavy part of raising the walls and pouring the foundation. Unfortunately they are still lacking $3,000 to finish it. I have felt impressed by the Lord to help them to the next step of putting on the roof. I am asking you to pray and see if the Lord would have you be the channel to meet this need.
The center photo is our latest family picture. I wanted to share it with you and tell you what we've been doing. First, as a family we are trusting him to bring his perfect will to pass in our lives. On the left is our daughter, Ana. She is still in high school and will graduate in 2010. On the right is our daughter Sara who is currently going to college here and soon will be going to Christ for the Nations.
Even after 23 years, Mexico can be very a challenging place to live, and being a foreigner can make it difficult. One thing remains the same--the tremendous satisfaction I experience in preaching the Word. These last three months, I have been blessed to preach in tent crusades such as this one (right-hand photo), and I've had a part in leading many people to the Lord. It makes it all worthwhile. Thank you for helping to make it happen.
God bless,
Ron Walicki
I stand amazed at how God has moved upon the young people of Mexico this summer. We have been involved in youth outreaches for more than 20 years, but this summer was a special time. A real awakening is occurring among the youth. Outreaches included mime, puppets, drama, youth preaching, and showing the love of God through one-on-one personal ministry.
I estimate that between 200 and 300 young people gave their hearts to the Lord during these summer outreaches. We work on this philosophy: If the parents don't want Jesus for whatever reason, we will reach out to their children. Jesus said not to hinder the children from coming to Him. In the right-hand photo, my daughter Ana is ministering deliverance, with a young man from Missouri, to a young man bound in sin. The Word works, and it was great to see God using young people to take the Gospel to their generation.
I wanted to give you an update on our other activities here. We have been involved in holding crusades approximately every three weeks, and we have been blessed by seeing many born into the kingdom of God. We also hold pastors' seminars approximately once a month, and we have seen the impact they are having in their lives. Currently we are involved in putting on a roof on a church and will be starting two new churches soon. I want to let you know your prayers and giving are making a difference and are helping us further the Gospel of Christ here in Mexico.
God bless,
Ron Walicki
I wanted to let you know that, as a family, we are doing well and serving and loving God. In the left-hand photo is Ana, who is preaching to a youth group. On the right are my wife, Maria, and our oldest daughter, Sara, ministering to the kids at an orphanage. We all are doing our part in helping to advance the kingdom of God in Mexico. Jesus said not to hinder the children in coming to Him, and most young people are open to the message of Christ. We want to be there to lead them to Christ before Satan can begin his destructive work in their lives.
We find that many people are overwhelmed with worry, sickness, and financial burdens, but unfortunately many do not find help in the local church. Out of desperation, they seek help from local witches and end up worse than before. I can testify that the Lord Jesus Christ has been breaking curses and strongholds and setting captives free. Thank-you for partnering with us in breaking the power of darkness.
God bless,
Ron Walicki

As the coming fo the Lord draws near, I find myself confronted by the seriousness of the times, and the Holy Spirit has placed within my heart an urgency to take the Gospel to those still bound by Satan. I took this picture as I was going out to hold a crusade at at town located on the ocean, and it so impressed me that the rain clouds were gathered above the fields and that they were ready to be harvested. I need you to help me bring in the end time harvest of souls. |
 |
A main focus is our training of pastors and putting materials in their hands so they may be able to teach their own people. It is essential for the success and continued growth of their churches. We are constantly teaching, preaching, and mentoring church leaders. We believe the more prepared they are, the more successful they will be. |
 |
Summer is a big time for reaching out to the children. Jesus said not to stop the children from coming unto Him. We have found that children love to serve God and know more about Him and His kindgom. Outreaches include orphanages, children's crusades, and VBI meetings. |
As always, we thank you! Please pray for us. I will be traveling extensively, putting on a roof on a church in the mountains, and holding crusades throughout Mexico. Together we are making an impact on the lives of many. God bless!
Ron Walicki
I was excited to see the response of so many young people as they committed their lives to the Lord. What had started out as a normal service changed suddenly as the Holy Spirit moved mightily upon these hungry hearts. We have also been holding revivals in both the city and rural areas, and we have been blessed by seeing many people give their hearts to the Lord. One lady had her hearing restored and many others experienced the liberating power of God. Thank you for helping make the difference in the lives of so many.
In the photo above, I am cutting the ribbon to open the new church planted in the town of Cuatemoc. The church is growing and impacting the community. The church on the right is our newest project. Both are doing well.
Ronald Walicki Ministries wishes to thank you for your commitment and desire to help establish the kingdom of God here in Mexico. I want you to know that your prayers and giving are impacting the lives of many people. The Lord continues to open doors for us to minister His Word with signs following.
Again, thank you for giving,
Ron Walicki
With everyone working hard, we were able to finish the church in Cuatemoc (photo below, left), even though Satan has controlled these people for a long time as many are bound in witchcraft. The Lord has been raising up a standard--His church--and when the light of the Gospel comes in, Satan has no choice but to leave.
Our newest church plant is located three hours south of the Texas/Mexico border. As you can see in the picture (above, right), we have laid the foundation and are ready to start raising the walls. Our purpose in building the local church is to have a sanctuary where the believer can find rest, hope, and healing. The local church is also where the sinner can find salvation, hope, and peace. The miracle of the seed growth is evident because Christianity is contagious and affects every aspect of society as the Holy Spirit brings conviction on the unbeliever. We want to be there with a net to bring in the harvest.
Our vision remains unchanged: to evangelize the lost, teach the believer, to plant the local church and to strengthen the believer. Now, after 22 years of seeing God confirm his Word time after time, I stand amazed at His goodness and faithfulness. The next six months will be a time of pastors' schools and evangelism. Your prayers and financial giving are a major factor in winning the lost and planting the church in the "regions beyond."
Thank you,
Ron
Beginning in January 2007, our efforts were directed towards pastors' seminars. Recognizing the great need to teach and raise up pastors and lay leaders, we held seminars throughout the year, averaging one every month. They have been some of our most fruitful outreaches. Pastors and lay workers desire to be taught and to have new spiritual insights and ministry tools to be able to minister more effectively to their people.
We continued with the church construction in the town of Las Pescadores (the fishermen) which was finished in March. It is a very solid work with a good pastor and it has been very effective in reaching out to the surrounding communities. We held a number of revivals and teaching seminars and we prayed with over a hundred people to receive Christ.
Our outreaches and evangelical crusades have included tent crusades in the San Fernando area of Crujias (northern Mexico), Las Norias, and La Punta de Piedra; and we have have brought many souls into the Kingdom of God while sparking revival in a traditional, dead, and apathetic area.
We continued to work in the state of Puebla, holding pastors' seminars in the village of the "Cannas" and in the village of Ixtalalloya (both villages where we've raised up churches). We found the seminars were much needed and they were well received as many different villages came to be taught and uplifted in the things of God. Some of the villages represented were Rancho Nuevo, Santa Maria, Huauchinango, Ixtalaluya, La Gloria, and several others. During Christmas we visited many of these places and celebrated the Christmas season with the brethren.
What was really encouraging was that the church in Huauchinango has finished plastering the whole church at a cost that showed much sacrifice on their part. They are growing as the Lord is faithful and continues to add people to the church. They are currently adding on a third floor to be used as dormitories and a pastor's house.
Here in Victoria (where we live) doors continued to open as we found many people were hungry for the things of God. We ministered the Word and also placed much emphasis on praise and worship. We conducted many outreaches both in the desert areas surrounding Victoria, and here in the city as well.
Southeast of Victoria we held a number of pastors' seminars in the cities of Tampico Alto, Madero, and Tampico. We also reached out to several orphanages and experienced a number of notable healings of deafness and other infirmities, and we prayed for more people to receive Christ. We also hosted a number of activities for children and young people in San Fernando and Tampico. Many people there prayed to receive Christ.
We began to plant a new church in the town of San Fernando, and we were able to finish raising the walls and pouring the roof. Services began in September. We began a new church building in the town of Cuatemoc. Currently all the walls there are raised and we will put on the roof in February. We also started to plant a new church in the town of Crujillas.
We began ministering in a new area in the mountains of central Mexico with crusades, teaching seminars, and ministry in churches. We held medical/dental crusades there in November which helped hundreds of people and brought more people into the Kingdom of God.
Our vision for 2008 is to continue to hold teaching seminars along with crusades and to finish the churches in the towns of Cuatemoc and Cujillas. We will continue to reach out to the poor and needy, and to conduct outreaches with the orphanages and young people. Thank-you for helping us take living bread to a lost and dying country that otherwise would have little chance to hear the Gospel of salvation.
En Cristo,
Ron
Truly the Lord is good and is faithful to all who trust Him! He has done wonderfully great things since my last newsletter to you. He has given us the wisdom and strength to raise the walls in the new church plant in the town of Cuatemoc. It was hard work, but the whole activity went well. Planting a church is one of the greatest experiences a missionary can have.
|
We were able to purchase all the roofing material, and in February we will be putting on the roof. I also promised to help out in a new church building approximately three hours south of the Texas/Mexico border. The work is endless and we appreciate your helping us to plant the church so others may know the the love and power of God. |

Pastor Joe Gonzalez and his church came down from New Braunfels, Texas to share the love of God through the preaching and teaching of the Word. They gave gifts to those less fortunate and prayed for the lost and hurting. Many received Christ and others were delivered and healed. Joe is in the picture at the right with my wife who is ministering to the hurting. |
 |
Thank-you for being a part of making it all happen.
God Bless You!
Ron
The Lord is good and His mercy endures forever. We took this God-kind of love to the people who live in the mountains of central Mexico. Unfortunately many live in severe poverty and have little chance of receiving medical and dental care. This all changed for four days as we were able to attend to more than two hundred needy people. (left-hand photo above) What an honor to minister to their natural needs as well as their spiritual ones.
Even thought these people are forgotten by the world, they are very much on the heart of the Lord. We held four days of crusades touching them with personal ministry, preaching, and door-to-door evangelism. Approximately eighty new souls were added to the kingdom of God. We also imparted hope and a new vision to the pastors. The entire event was God-ordained, and everyone was affected and refreshed by the presence of the Lord.
As always, we are blessed by your partnering with us in taking living bread to spiritually dying men and women. The apostle Paul exhorted us not to grow weary in well-doing. Our prayer is that you continue to partner with us as we continue to snatch men from the flames of Hell, heal the sick, and build God's church.
Thank-you,
Ron
Good things happen when one is buy about the Father's business. As you can see here, we have just poured the roof on the church in San Fernando. This will be the main church in a new organization that we have been part of helping get started. Currently there are about 40 churches that have come together with the same vision of advancing the kingdom here in Mexico and the United States.
This is our newest church plant. It is located approximately 6 hours south of the Texas/Mexico border and is an hour from the Gulf coast. Directly behind the group of believers is steel rebar. They have begun to raise columns. We have also been able to purchase a large part of the building material needed for the foundation. The biggest obstacle has been all the rain which has been pounding the coast. Because of the weather, all work has been going on inside a temporary building. As soon as it dries out, they will be hard at work.
Much of our focus is spent on praise and worship along with teaching seminars. The use of projectors and PowerPoint™ has greatly enhanced the effectiveness to impact and bring change in the lives of the people. Together we are impacting the lives of many people as the Lord continues to use willing vessels to make the difference.
Thank-you for making it happen,
Ron
Pictured in the first two photos are my two daughters. The one in the photo at the left is Sara. She is being impacted by the power of the Holy Spirit at a youth rally in Fort Worth, Texas. She will graduate next year from high school and is planning on going to Christ for the Nations in Dallas, Texas, and then possibly nursing school. She has expressed to me a desire to eventually go into missions. My younger daughter Ana is being baptized during a youth mission trip in the center photo. She is also wanting to study at Christ for the Nations.
In the photo at the right, my wife is the one on the left praying for a woman seeking deliverance. She is very active in her own ministry as the Lord uses her in interpreting, as a worship leader and in the teaching ministry. As a family we all are involved in taking living bread to a lost world. With all of our heart we wish say thank you for your prayers and sacrificial giving.
En Cristo,
Ron
As we enter the summer months, our focus remains strong to reach out to those still waiting to hear the Gospel. I am driving approximately 2000 miles a month, taking the this power changing Word to hungry hearts all over Mexico, and seeing many people come to know Jesus. It's always a precious time when a sinner accepts the Lord and it also reinforces our commitment to take living bread to spiritually dead people.
Here we are finishing the children's church in the village of San Gertrudis. The Lord has laid on the pastor's heart to reach the kids with the Gospel. Many times the parents have rejected the Lord and emphasis is now directed towards the young people who are more open. Having their own building really helps in teaching and establishing them in the Lord. The girl using the microphone is my daughter involved in an outreach. There is great satisfaction seeing your own kids seeking the Lord and active in spreading the Gospel.
As always, your prayers and giving are vital in preaching and reaching more people with the saving Grace of Jesus Christ.
Thank You,
Ron
Times of refreshing from God were experienced by everyone seeking the Lord during the 10th anniversary of the church in Huauchinango, Puebla. I was amazed at how such a small and difficult beginning would grow and impact so many people. A whole new generation of young people have risen up and are running with the fire of the Holy Spirit.
As I mentioned in my last newsletter, we committed to help finish a children's church close to where we live. With your prayers and giving we have been able to raise the walls, pour columns, and shortly we will be putting on the roof. I wish to say that the heart of the child is in the Lord's hand. We are endeavoring to do our part in bringing them there.
During the months of June and July we will be holding special outreaches to orphanages and vacation Bible schools in a number of different villages and neighborhoods. Your prayers are needed to combat the devil and hi plans for these young kids. Now is the time to bring them into the Kingdom of God. Both the Lord and I greatly appreciate it. Believe with us for a great harvest of young people.
Our believers' meetings continue to be very effective in maturing the believers. These meetings or teaching seminars allow us to go deeper in the Word and really challenge the believer on what the Word says -- not what tradition dictates. We are in the business of changing lives through the Word and the power of the Holy Spirit.
Thank you for all your prayers and giving. Let's go on and finish the race and fill Heaven with souls for Jesus.
En Cristo,
Ron
This is our newest church plant in the town of San Fernando (photo at left), approximately 2 hours from the Texas/Mexico border. We have been raising walls and believe that by August or September we will pour a cement roof. I wish you could experience and feel the presence of the Holy Spirit as it is poured out upon the city. We are taking back what the Devil took and returning it to God.
The Lord has led us to work with an orphanage (photo at right) located approximately one hour from Victoria. As you can see, the group is in need of finishing their children's church which I have committed to do, at a cost of between 600 and 700 dollars. If the Lord would touch your heart it would greatly be appreciated if you can send your love offering to this address. May God richly bless you.
As always we are blessed by your partnering with us to take living bread to spiritually dying men and women. The Apostle Paul exhorted us not to be weary in well doing. Our prayer is that you continue to partner with us as we continue to snatch men from the flames of Hell, teach the believer, heal the sick, and build His church.
Thank You!
Ron
This picture was taken by fellow ministers as we were going to hold services in the mountains among the Aztec Indians in central Mexico. It takes time, energy, and finances to reach these forgotten people, but it is well worth the effort. Almost without fail, God blesses us with his presence and makes it all worthwhile. We have eternity to spend with God, but we have only a short time to serve Him on the earth. Let's be about the Father's business.
We have been moving forward on on fronts here in Mexico, and what has been so exciting is seeing new souls being brought into the kingdom of God. The impact of crusades can never be fully appreciated. It brings the unsaved person into a real encounter with the Holy Spirit, which results in real salvations. You can always tell when a person is having a real experience with God--the whole atmosphere is charged with the presence of the Lord.
I believe it's one of the greatest experiences a believer can be a part of, leading a soul to God. We prayed with about 50 or 60 new people to be born again in the last several months. We also have begun a new church planting about two hours south of the Mexico/U.S. border in the city of San Fernando. The Mexican brethren have begun with all the footings and laying rebar. I believe it's going to be a good church that will impact the area around it. I'm looking at $2,500 to finish the footings and raise the walls. Please pray and see if the Lord would have you help in meeting this need.
Thank You!
Ron
The Lord asked Isaiah, the prophet who could who could He send to tell the people about the coming judgment. Isaiah responded, "Here am I; send me." Now 3,000 years later, the Lord is asking once again, "Whom shall I send?" We have heard the cry, and with your help we have been taking the Gospel to people who are waiting to hear the salvation message.
My prayer for 2007 is for a deeper revelation of the times in which we are living and for more insight into eternity. At times, I'm almost overwhelmed in my spirit by what I see transpiring throughout the world. Knowing that the time is short, we have been traveling and ministering both in the cities an in the mountains, finding people with deep spiritual needs. We are laying hands on the sick and seeing God heal them. The sinners are converted, and those who want a deeper walk with the Lord are satisfied. Seeing people respond to the Lord confirms our vision and validates our time here. VISION 2007 -- Our desire and vision remains unchanged -- to take the living Word to the masses who are still waiting to hear, to plant churches in the region beyond, to conduct healing and salvation crusades, to teach and train pastors, and to give oversight to pastors and churches.
Pictured here is my wife, Maria, ministering to a hurting heart. The Lord continues to raise her up in her own ministry.
Will you help us take the Gospel message to those still seated in darkness? We thank-you and pray God's blessings on you.
En Cristo,
Ron
Jesus promised that the gates of Hell would not prevail against the Church, and now being part of helping plant twenty churches, I can personally testify to it. I like to look back and see the different phases of the construction of the church and then when it's finished. We dedicated this new building last month and were overjoyed by the response of the people and were blessed blessed by the presence of the Holy Spirit. Since beginning this work a year ago, we have prayed for over 200 people to receive the Lord in this village.
2006 can be summed up as a year of ministering to people on all levels. Through medical crusades, personal ministry, crusades, pastors' seminars, or one-on-one, we have endeavored to preach the Gospel to those without Christ. Your prayers and giving have made the difference in the lives of 500 men, women, and children who prayed to receive the Lord.
2006 confirmed our commitment to teaching pastors and leaders. Being able to give them the necessary tools to infuse them with the Word and then see them go back to their churches and areas of ministry renewed and to do the work Jesus commanded them to do is a great experience. We hold pastors' seminars approximately every six weeks and will continue to do so all over Mexico.
Times of refreshing were felt by the forgotten people who sat in darkness waiting to see the light. Crusades and revivals were, for many, their first real encounter with the power of God. Healings and deliverances were evident as people opened their lives and experienced the power of God. Crusades have always been a major part of our ministry, and this will continue in 2007.
Our vision is to continue to reach out to the forgotten people, holding pastors' seminars, building churches, doing crusades and revivals, giving spiritual oversight to pastors and leaders, church visitation, medical missions, and whatever the Lord would call us to do. Your prayers and giving are vitally important in accomplishing what the Lord has called us to do in Latin America.
Thank You,
Ron
The reason for the season is quite evident as these Aztec Indians experience the power of the Holy Spirit in their lives. Living so far removed from civilization offers little opportunity to hear the Gospel message of Jesus Christ. Ron Walicki Ministries Has dedicated 21 years of service to bring salvation, healing, and deliverance to these forgotten people. I want to thank you personally for partnering with us in helping to bring more people into the kingdom of God. The real reason for the season is Jesus.
Building a church in a sin dominated environment is the second greatest spiritual experience one can have (the first being leading a sinner to the Lord.) The first of November, the roof was poured signifying the major part of the construction completed. Presently the cement is drying and soon services will be held, allowing the Holy Spirit an avenue to bless and touch people. I am very pleased, and I wish to thank you for helping me to make it happen. We ask for your continued prayers and support to continue impacting the people of Mexico.

Taking the Gospel throughout Mexico requires a vehicle that doesn't have 240,000 miles on the odometer, so this summer we were able to purchase a 2004 Ford Explorer with about 31,000 miles. It has been a real blessing, and the gas mileage is a lot better than my old GMC Yukon. The picture on the left was taken with my wife at a medical outreach that we helped organize. We wish to thank you for making this purchase possible through your prayers and giving. In the photo at the right, we are ministering in praise and worship which is always a fun and blessed time. Many people here live defeated lives -- without hope, and to be used by the Lord is a privilege beyond words. In the center photo, my wife is sharing love and releasing the power of prayer to hearts that have been broken. We are currently in the process of finishing the church in Las Canas, which includes pouring the cement roof. We have a number of pastors' schools scheduled for this month. As always, your prayers and giving are essential to keep furthering the Gospel here in Mexico.
Thank You,
Ron
Times of refreshing from the Holy Spirit were felt by everyone as we came together to minister the Word. The people pictured above are from a mountain village in the state of Veracruz. They are descendents of the Aztec Indians who have been abused throughout the centuries and so it was a real honor being part of the work that the Holy Spirit was doing in their lives. A number of them received Jesus and others were set free from bondages and addictions that had controlled their lives.
The building project is progressing well in the fishing village of La Laguna. Pictured here are some of the brethren gathered together. As you can see, we are still lacking a roof. We are estimating a cost of five thousand dollars for a cement roof, which is needed because the church is located on the Gulf of Mexico and hurricanes come through on a regular basis. I thank God for you for being a channel to help meet this need.
Ron
The Lord is Good and His mercy endures forever. We took this love to
the people who live on the Gulf of Mexico and who make their living fishing.
Many of them live in severe poverty and have little chance of being able to
receive dental work. That all changed for three days as we were able to
see approximately 100 needy men, women, and children. What an honor to
serve in ministering to their natural needs.
Our motto is Building the Kingdom of God one block at a time.
Here we are raising the walls on our new church project in the fishing village
of Punta de Piedra (Rocky Point.) We were able to raise almost all the
walls and pour the columns. Our purpose in building churches in different
parts of Mexico is to give the Holy Spirit an avenue to flow through and
minister to the multitudes of people still waiting to hear the salvation
message. We will be needing $5,000 more to pour a cement roof as there is
constant danger from hurricanes and tropical storms. We ask you to help us
help these people to finish their church and allow the love of God to flow out
to a needy, sin-sick world.
I also wanted to tell you about the upcoming Youth Quake that will be held during the second week of June. We will be visiting orphanages, painting churches, doing street ministry and holding crusades at night. As always these are extra expenses, and we are inviting you to pray and ask the Lord if He would have you partner with us, as we will be involved in ministry in southern Mexico holding more crusades and pastors' seminars. We will need another $500 to meet those extra expenses. Thank you for being the channel that the Lord uses to expand the Gospel throughout Mexico.
En Cristo,
Ron
ADDENDUM to the June Newsletter:
Hello Co-Worker,
I wanted to take this time to share a need that we are facing. Approximately three weeks ago we were involved in a six-car accident. Yes, it was bad but, thanks to the Lord no one was injured. The cost incurred is $11,000. I am letting you know this to see if the Lord would use you to be a channel to help us pay it so we can continue our work to reach the lost in Mexico. Again, we are fine and we are going on with our ministry.
Thank you,
Ron
I stand amazed as I look back over 20 years of ministry here in Mexico. On May 15, 1986, I crossed the Mexico/Texas border with missionary friend Walter Fleming. Little did I know what awaited me as I began working among the Indians who lived in the mountains. Pictured here is the first church that I helped build. It has been finished for a long time and has been a beacon of hope for thousands of people, enabling them to hear the message of Christ.
The Lord chose to use us 20 years ago as the Holy Spirit was mightily poured out on the indigenous people. Literally thousands of people were saved. On numerous occasions as I would return to my vehicle after ministering, I would find people waiting to be saved. It was a powerful time of God moving on His people and baptizing them in the Holy Spirit. Many more were delivered and healings were the norm. We were able to raise up 7 churches that are still preaching the Gospel today.
From southern Mexico, I moved to the Gulf of Mexico and was involved in the deliverance ministry and saw many people set free from demon possession. We continued building churches, holding crusades and started pastors' seminars around the Tampico area where we lived. I also met my wife Maria at this time, and we married a year later. Upon completing my training under a senior missionary, I moved 6 hours south and began to work in a city called Papantla in the state of Veracruz.
Our time in Papantla was very productive as well as very challenging as the city is known for its pyramids and New Age beliefs. We were able to do extensive ministry both in the city and in the mountains. We were instrumental in starting revival fires throughout the area. We planted four churches, held crusades, taught seminars and did our part in advancing the kingdom of God.
Our next 12 years were spent in the state of Puebla where we continued building churches and opening new areas for the Gospel. We left seven churches, and our biggest church was build in our home city of Huauchinango (the one on the right.) Currently we are living in the northern state of Tamaulipas. We have built three churches and are raising the walls on number four.
We are committed to the call that God has placed on our live, and we will continue planting churches, preaching the Gospel, holding pastors' seminars and medical, dental outreaches, and winning the lost. We are looking forward to another 20 years working with you.
The Lord continues to confirm His Word with signs following as the Gospel penetrates the darkness. In the past month we have concentrated our efforts in doing pastors' seminars which are essential for long-term growth and stability in the churches. Our crusades have brought in one hundred fifty new souls into the kingdom of God.
Jesus said to allow the children to come to Him. For four days, hundreds of kids were presented with the Gospel message in different ways. Mime, puppets, preaching, games and teaching touched and impacted these young minds. What was so exciting was that these kids were hungry and felt the love of God. Many gave their lives to Jesus.
We demonstrated the love of
God by healing and feeding the sick and by ministering the Word to them.
Also through medical teams we were able to help over two hundred needy people
receive dental attention which softened their hearts, allowing the Holy Spirit
to minister to them. The Lord said that the fields are ripe unto harvest.
We are harvesting souls and building His kingdom with your help, and I want to
say thank you.
So many times here in Mexico
the children are the forgotten people. We have endeavored to change this
problem with outreaches aimed at presenting the Gospel in drama and the use of
puppets to convey the salvation message. Here my oldest daughter Sara
translates for a group of puppeteers from Colorado. Thirty kids received the
Lord during that week. It was a time of impacting the lives of many young kids
with the power of the Gospel.
The construction of the new
church building in the village of Laguna is going well as we have been
digging footings and laying steel. Building churches is hard physical work but
the benefit is great. Our desire is to change the spiritual climate and allow
the Holy Spirit to move. Having a church building is part of the answer as it
strengthens the believers, gives them a place of refuge and testifies to the
community that we are serious and here to stay.
We are thankful that you have partnered with us. Our outreaches with your help are changing lives and are being part of the great commission of going into all the world and preaching. Every week we are leading new people into the kingdom of God and our crusades are bringing liberty and deliverance to many. Our pastors’ conferences have been especially beneficial as it has given new tools of understanding of the Bible and encouragement

As 2005 ends, I like to
reflect back on the year and see what we have accomplished with the help of the
Lord. First and most importantly, many souls were born again. I found a real
hunger in the lives of so many to know Christ. Secondly, we finished the church
in the village of El Coronel and began construction on the one pictured
below. Third, our teaching ministry has greatly grown as the need and hunger is
so great. Currently we are holding a pastor’s seminar approximately every month
in different parts of Mexico and the results have been tremendous. Many have
testified that they were on the verge of quitting or had stagnated in their
ministries and were greatly encouraged by the teachings. Good things are
happening and we had a tremendous part in making it all happen. I know the Lord
is pleased with our efforts and I believe 2006 will be even better. Thank you
for helping it all to happen.
Our ministry is growing and with it our effectiveness to reach more people. This photo reminded me of how many people are on the road of life searching for answers. Together with your help we have been able to pray with hundreds of these precious souls to receive Christ in 2005. Many more testified of healings and deliverances from addictions and satanic powers.
The Lord helped us attain this
land in the fishing village of La Laguna. We have bought $1,100 worth of
building materials to begin work on the footings and the foundation. Having
their own church building adds strength to the nucleus of believers and allows
them a foundation on which to conduct their activities and grow. Please pray
and see if the Lord would have you to be a channel in raising up this new church
in an area dominated by drunkenness and defeat. We are in need of $7,000 to
complete the project.
Hello,
I wanted to inform you of the changes that have been happening in our lives. We are in the process of leaving World Indigenous Missions after twenty years and have incorporated as Ronald Walicki Ministries. We are a legally recognized ministry and have our 501-3C tax-exempt status which allows us to issue tax-exempt receipts for donations. The reason for this change is that for a number of years God has lead us into a different and larger phase of ministry and consequently our own ministry. I would like to say World Indigenous Missions has been a blessing to us for many years, but now we feel it is time to go on to the next phase of ministry here in Mexico.
Our ministry and vision will continue the same as we are not leaving Mexico. Currently we are in the process of building another church on the Gulf of Mexico. We also have been very active in holding pastors’ seminars throughout Mexico, which has been a time of growth and maturing of the pastors and leaders. Our crusades have been successful as well. Many new souls have been saved.
Current needs: monthly support, $8,000 for the church building project in La Laguna $1,400 for a digital overhead projector for teaching at pastors’ schools, and prayer as we have been going into many new areas with the Gospel.

The Lord opened my eyes and
showed me the fruit of our labors. At the end of October, I participated in one
of the most beautiful times of teaching, praise and worship, and people coming
together as the body of Christ. I taught on vision and the twenty-five pastors
that were there were deeply impacted by the Word and the Holy Spirit. I was
very encouraged by their spirituality as well as their hunger to learn.
In October I was back in the state of Veracruz where I worked twenty years previously. The sights and sounds have remained the same and many traditions continue. The biggest difference was the spiritual change. The Gospel has truly penetrated the area and I know in my heart that we had a part in bringing about this change. The churches are maturing and growing.
I was blessed by seeing the Mexican brethren starting missions and taking the Gospel throughout the mountains and valleys, preaching the Word. I want to say thank-you for helping us make it possible. Many people are being born again, delivered, and healed by the power of God. We are committed to continue preaching the Gospel and we need you to help us.
Thank you,
Ron Walicki
In an area dominated by poverty, unemployment, and a sense of defeat, the people of the village of Coronal were blessed by four days of free dental work. More than one hundred fifty needy people received dental work. Not only does this type of outreach help people with physical needs, but it also softens their hearts towards the things of God.
Jesus said to allow the children to come to Him. The children of Coronal met the Life Giver--Jesus Christ! Special outreaches touched the hearts of both young and old. Many of these kids prayed to see Jesus and some of the older people did also. During the evenings, crusades were held. The Word was preached, lives were impacted and more people were brought into the kingdom of God.
We also began building a church facility in Coronal. I believe the Lord has brought us together to reach the thousands of people still living in the desert, waiting to hear the Gospel message. I need $3,000 to finish this building project. Please pry and be obedient to the Lord if He wants to use you to meet this need.
We ministered the Love of God to the people of Coronal. Sometimes people just need to know that someone loves them and God is for them. Please pray for Pastor Victor. As we like to say around here, we go beyond the calling and to regions beyond! With your help we build the kingdom of God, one soul at a time. Thank you.
On a more serious note, Maria, my wife, was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. She was operated on and is recovering well. Please pray against this disease. We are facing hospital bills of $3,000. If you wish to help, make your checks payable to WIM and indicate that it's for Maria. We are not defeated--we are going on with God.
En Cristo,
Ron Walicki
"I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision."
Twenty-three years ago, the Lord began to reveal His will to me concerning ministry outside of the United States. How little was I prepared for it and the cost that would have to be paid both physically and spiritually...
Mexico has very beautiful areas and some of the nicest people I have ever met. The Lord has called us to be "fishers of men." These last several months, we began to see a manifestation of healing gifts as we encounter many hurt and sick people who have no hope. Several miracles come to mind--a pastor who for ten years suffered with shingles was healed and an older lady who instantly had her hearing restored danced with joy! Praise God!
Now with almost two decades of ministry behind us, we are still excited about preaching the Gospel to those still in darkness. Just being a part of leading a person to the Lord makes all the work so worth it. With your help we have baptized hundreds, raised up twenty churches, opened new areas for the Gospel, and seen countless people set free from the power of darkness.
The Lord asked the prophet Ezekiel if the dry bones of Israel could live again. Ezekiel didn't know, but he obeyed the Lord and saw a great miracle as the bones came together and lived! Since moving to northern Mexico, we have encountered many spiritual dry bones and we have been blessed to see them live again as the Lord breathes new life into them.
God calls different people for different tasks. I believe one of our callings is to revive a Church which has been beaten down, hopes dashed, and destroyed. It is almost beyond words to describe how God works as he sends the gentle breeze of the Holy Spirit to hurting people. We are finishing up the church building in Las Norias. What is so exciting is that the people are responding and are giving their lives over to Jesus! In this area we are currently working with eight different churches. It appears we will have another church join us soon. This means our ministry continues to grow and we are reaching more people with the Gospel!
Now more than ever, we need your prayers and support as we continue to be a part of expanding God's kingdom here in Mexico.
Blessings,
Ron Walicki
Our mission is taking the Gospel to the people of Mexico one person at a time. Now that 2004 has come to an end, I like to look back and see what the Lord has done through us. All in all, it has been a productive year and many things have been accomplished for God's glory...
Ron Walicki Ministries has always focused on planting churches. During 2004 we had the privilege of helping to finish the construction of two church buildings. Currently we are involved in a third building project, believing to have the roof in place sometime this spring. Having one's own church building strengthens and helps build one's faith, while at the same time giving the Holy Spirit an avenue to flow and minister to the entire community.
Our newest church plant is in the village of Las Norias ("Springs of Water".) We have begun raising the walls and believe by March we will have them raised and soon afterward put the roof on. I wish you could experience the feel of the presence of the Holy Spirit as it poured out upon the village! We are taking back what the devil took and returning it to God.
Our social outreaches included ministry to the children, medical and dental outreaches and feeding the poor. All of these ministries not only help the physical man, but also allow us to plant the Word of God in their hearts. As a result, many have received Christ as their Savior!
Crusades, pastors' seminars, church visitation, and giving oversight to a large number of churches take up a large part of our time. I find myself traveling throughout Mexico on a regular basis, taking "living bread" to spiritually dying men and women.
Thank you for all your prayers, support and love! 2004 was a tremendous year of taking back what the devil had stolen. Many souls were saved, churches were raised up, pastors and people taught and the Gospel taken into new areas.
Thank you!
Ron Walicki
