VISION AND MISSION
Our vision is to see our partner denomination, the Reformed Presbyterian Church (RPC) of Mexico, develop into a strong, growing, unified Reformed denomination. To this end, Dave's mission is to develop new and current leaders for the RPC and develop resources for the denomination. The RPC is a denomination of about 15,000 members, spread out from Tijuana all the way to Cancún. World Missions has been working with the RPC since the 1960s.


MISSION WORK
Dave has a variety of tasks through his ministry with the RPC. He teaches New Testament and other subjects at the RPC Seminary in Mexico City, travels across Mexico to lead conferences on topics urgent to the RPC, gathers statistics and develops the RPC website (http://www.iprmsg.org), and produces various Christian materials in Spanish that are available on his website
(http://www.giffmex.org/esp/indice.html).

Dave also helps two local churches and hosts one or two Service and Learning teams to Mexico City each year. Blanca handles the visas for all the Mexico missionaries and helps with the children’s ministries and the ladies’ society of a local RPC church.

Their son Daniel was born in 1995 in Ecuador while they served there as church planters. Alexandra was born in 2000 in Michigan while Dave was studying at Calvin Theological Seminary. Both are studying at a bilingual private school in Mexico City.

The Giffords have a news blog, photos, articles, and various resources in English available on their own website, http://www.giffmex.org/newsblog. For security reasons the Giffords do not put their contact information online. Please contact the Giffords via World Missions.

In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who will judge the living and the dead, and in view of His appearing and His Kingdom, I give you this charge: Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction.
(2 Timothy 4:1-2).
