Andy Weaver
Mexico

He began his career as a full-time missionary in Latin America when he moved to Guatemala in October of 1993 to attend language school there for six months. While he was studying Spanish in Guatelmala, he did jail ministry. During this period, he also took a trip to El Salvador, where he ministered in two prisons, two jails, and a juvenile detention center. (He has also ministered in prisons and jails in Costa Rica and Nicaragua.)
In May 1994, Brother Andy moved to the Monterrey, Mexico area. He ministered more than eight years in the jails and prisons of the Monterrey metropolitan area and Saltillo. During his first two and a half years in Mexico, he started weekly ministries in three jails and a juvenile detention center. In the year 2002, an associate pastor of a Center of Faith church and Brother Andy organized the first "Encounter With Jesus" retreats inside of a Mexican prison. Also, they were the first ministers to start a cell group system called "The Principle of the Twelve" inside of a Mexican prison. From this, they started two leaders' schools for the prisoners in this prison. With the vision to start a cell group system in the prisons of central Mexico, in July 2002, Andy moved to Aguascalientes, Mexico, where he now lives.
Brother Andy's goal is not just to make "converts", but also to make disciples and leaders of the prisoners. To that end, he has given out many Bibles, tracts, and started many prisoners on Bible correspondence courses. He has also given in-prison seminars. His goal is to establish evangelism and discipleship, through cell groups, in prisons throughout Mexico.
Brother Andy currently has ministerial credentials with Rhema Ministerial Association International and with Faith Christian Fellowship International (with whom he is a missionary). He also holds ministerial credentials with a group of churches in Mexico called "Centro de Fe, Esperanza y Amor" (Center of Faith, Hope and Love).
Thanks to the Lord, Brother Andy has seen many prisoners come to the Lord Jesus Christ through his ministry to the prisoners in Latin America. However, he does not consider himself a "lone ranger", but a co-laborer with Latin Americans, reaching the prisoners in Latin America for Christ.

Andy Weaver is currently ministering in the prisons of Aguascalientes and in other prisons in central Mexico. In addition to teaching the prisoners the Word of God, Brother Andy also ministers to the prisoners in song using Mexican style sound tracks. Because of this, Mexicans call him "El Charro Blanco"
(the white Mexican cowboy).
