Seventh-day Adventist youth in the area participated in a week-long evangelistic outreach effort titled “Love Without Boundaries.” The program was led by the youth department of the Adventist Church in the Inter-American region, along with Adventists in the North Mexican and Baja California area.
Bernardo Rodriguez, director of the youth department for the church in Inter-America, spoke at the meetings every evening. “This is the first outreach of its kind under the strategic plan for church growth in Inter-America this year,” he said. “The youth were closely involved in the programs of this evangelistic event.”
During the week, Adventist youth from Tijuana were involved in community service such as cleaning parks, streets and the stadium. They also took part in a blood drive called “Donating Life.”
According to Rodriguez, similar youth events will take place each year in a different region of Inter-America. Next year’s Youth Evangelistic Outreach program will be held in the city of Tapachula, in Soconusco, South Mexico.
