I don't have a lot of personal acquaintance with them, but I think the church service I probably enjoyed most in the whole of my life was at a National Presbyterian Church (Berith) in Mexico City (Coyoacan). The pastor is Gerald Nyndhuis (I am not sure of the spelling), and he preached a very interesting message from Acts 28. They sang some great hymns I had never heard before, and only the pastor and one ruling elder spoke with me and my friends as we were going out (and I had a particular question to ask him). | Did you know about David Crum's work as an Evangelist from the SoCal OPC? He's been helping establish a Presbyterian Church in Mexico in Tijuana. I don't know if it's one of the above that you mentioned that he works with.
