- Our Mission
We establish an environment of light and safety, sharing the love of God in word and deed, through food and education.
OUR VALUES
DO EVERYTHING IN LOVE.
One of the key guiding attitudes for our staff is to "do everything in love." It is visible on our faces, our t-shirts and our jackets. Most importantly, it is evident as we serve--preparing plates, washing dishes, teaching children, and befriending those who live in Zona Norte.
Recognizing God-given dignity
We often remind our staff and visiting teams that we do not give dignity to anyone. We simply recognize what God has put in each person. Knowing that we are all made "in the image of God" and equally deserving of grace and kindness helps us serve with humble hearts.
Working in unity
RED means "network" in Spanish, which underscores Mexico RED's foundation as a ministry outreach organization which seeks to partner with like-minded churches and ministries. We desire to engage pastors and ministry leaders who share the same values and beliefs, are dedicated to extending God’s Kingdom, who have a calling to reach the poor and marginalized, and are committed to expressing their leadership in life-giving, Christ-like characteristics.

RELATIONSHIP - EVANGELISM - DISCIPLESHIP
“As we minister to the poor, we tell them about the one who became poor for our sake (2 Corinthians 8:9); as we offer food to the hungry, we speak of the bread of life (John 6:35); as we visit the sick and dying, we point to him who took our illnesses and bore our diseases (Matthew 8:17); and as we give cups of water to parched tongues, we tell them of him who said, ‘If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink’ (John 7:37).” Seth Porch, Bethlehem College & Seminary
Relationship
We value loving, sincere, healthy relationships that are biblically based and which communicate dignity, hope, and charity (The Great commandment to love God and love our neighbor ~ Matthew 22:35-40).
Evangelism
We value sharing the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, to see lives transformed as they receive his grace and salvation. We joyfully obey His command to be witnesses of His mercy to others (The Great Commission ~Mark 16:15, Matthew 28:18-20).
Discipleship
We value growing in our relationship with God and others by becoming the best followers and testimony of Jesus through our actions, the diversity of our gifts, and our callings (2 Timothy 2:2; 3:16-17, Acts 2:42).
OUR VISION
In unity with God and other organizations, we desire to see children and adults overcoming the environment of vulnerability and living with purpose and healthy dreams.
