Chris and Francelia McReynolds
Francelia and Chris McReynolds serve throughout much of Mexico training parents and church leaders in a biblical approach to Christian education and discipleship. Their focus is mentoring leaders in biblical Christian education for discipling the nation. Starting within, each leader models a transformed life that influences family, church, community and, eventually, the nation.
They use AMO Program, by Chrysalis International, to raise the standard of education in a growing number of homes and local churches. Equipped with training in biblical Christian worldview and curriculum based on biblical principles, parents and church leaders are transforming their approach to educating the next generations.
Chris grew up on the Texas-México border and attended First Presbyterian Church of Del Rio, Texas. He has a BA in animal science and additional studies in cross-cultural ministry from Fuller Seminary. His interest in cross-cultural ministry was cultivated while participating in short-term mission projects as early as 1999. This led to fulltime service beginning in 2007. His calling to promote transformational education using AMO Program began when he attended a training in 2009.
Francelia was born in México City and lived as a youth in the Mexican state of Tabasco, where she first began following Jesus Christ. She has a MA in Arts and Religion (Westminster Seminary at Glenside, Pennsylvania) and a Doctorate in Missiology (Faculdade Sul Americana, Brazil). She has served as the Executive Secretary of the Ministry of Education for the National Presbyterian Church of México, where she wrote and edited Sunday school curriculum and other educational materials. With a vision for serving women, children and Christian education in México, Francelia is studying Law, part-time, at the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México.
Chris and Francelia were married in 2011 and now serve together as directors of AMO Mexico. Their home is near Mexico City.
