Satellite Evangelism Broadcast Aims to Reach Every 
Spanish-Speaking Country

Merida, Yucatan, Mexico.     NET Mexico 2000, a series of 
evangelistic meetings that ran from October 21 to 
November 4 in southern Mexico, is the first Seventh-
day Adventist satellite program that aims to reach 
every Spanish-speaking people group.  The fifteen-meeting 
series conducted by Seventh-day Adventist Hispanic 
evangelist Victor Schultz will be rebroadcast to 
33 countries in January 2001 using a network of four 
satellites. 

"It is simply inspiring to see the excitement, the 
dedication, and the hard work" of Adventist Church members 
in southern Mexico in preparing for the event, says 
Schultz.  The meetings were held in Merida's largest 
covered stadium, which seats 7,000 people. Organizers 
say that through the meetings "thousands are finding 
peace, hope, purpose, and the love of Christ."

The evangelistic series will be rebroadcast to 
downlink sites in North, Central and South America, 
Australia, and Europe by Adventist Global Communication 
Network (AGCN), Three Angels Broadcasting Network 
(3ABN), and ADSAT, a Brazilian-based Adventist broadcast 
network.
