We had a great weekend at our Native Voices Conference in Gallup, New Mexico. It started with the church and the whole city of Gallup losing all electricity 20 minutes before our program started. We continued on and The Lord blessed our time together as we honored our Native Trailblazers.
The power came back on for our Saturday session and had some great challenging messages encouraging everyone to look at ways we can reach our own people with the Gospel.
It was a great time of fellowship.

Our second honorees for our Native Voices conference is Benny and Edna Romero.
Please come celebrate the wonderful servants of The Lord at our Native Voices conference at First Baptist in Gallup on September 18-19th. The presentation for them will be Friday evening. Here is a short testimony of their ministry.

Benny and Edna Romero have dedicated their lives to serving the Lord and reaching people in the Taos Pueblo community. Bennie is from Taos Pueblo, while Edna’s family had a long history of missionary work in Taos but was originally from Santa Clara Pueblo. Her father became unable to continue the ministry because of a heart attack, and Bennie was called to help carry on the work.

Both Bennie and Edna originally worked as classroom teachers. They came to see their teaching careers as part of God’s preparation for their ministry because it allowed them to build relationships with children, young people, families, and elders in the community. Through these relationships, doors were opened for them to minister to people spiritually and emotionally.

A major part of their ministry has been personal relationships and prayer. People in the community approach them for prayer and support, and Bennie and Edna make themselves available to walk alongside people during difficult circumstances. They find great joy in seeing prayers answered and in hearing that people they have prayed for are recovering or doing better.

Even after retirement, they believe they are not retired from serving the Lord. Their continued mission is to reach people, demonstrate God's love, and encourage others to live with purpose. Bennie emphasizes that life is more than simply getting through each day—it has a God-given purpose centered on loving and caring for one another.

Overall, their ministry is characterized by service, prayer, relationship-building, compassion, and a commitment to their community. Their work demonstrates how God used their experiences as teachers, their family heritage, and their relationships within Taos Pueblo to create opportunities to share faith and care for others.

At our NATIVE VOICES conference, Sept. 18-19 at First Baptist Church of Gallup, NM, we will be honoring two native missionary "TRAILBLAZERS."

The first recipient we'd like to introduce is Rose Ignacio.
Here is a little testimony of her life and legacy. We invite you to join us Friday, Sept 18th as we honor Rose' lifelong commitment to sharing the gospel with her Navajo people.

Rose Ignacio’s life is a powerful story of tragedy, faith, and purpose.
At just 13 years old, Rose lost her mother and later faced the pain of her father’s alcoholism. While traveling with her younger sister to live with an aunt, the girls were caught in a blizzard. Rose survived, but tragically, her sister did not.

During her recovery, Rose encountered missionaries who shared the Gospel with her. Remembering Acts 16:31, she opened her heart to Christ and committed her life to following Him.

Years later, Rose returned to the Navajo reservation as a missionary, dedicating her life to serving her people. She teaches Navajo language and culture, leads women and youth, helps families in need, and most importantly, shares the hope she found in Jesus.

Rose believes that following Christ did not mean giving up being Navajo. She spent her life showing others that faith and cultural identity could coexist.

Her ministry is built on relationships—serving, helping, listening, and earning the trust of her community. As Rose said, “When I got saved, I wanted to tell anybody about the Lord.” Her life became a beautiful testimony of how God can bring purpose from pain.

“Two are better than one, Because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, one will lift up his companion. But woe to him who is alone when he falls, For he has no one to help him up.”
‭‭Ecclesiastes‬ ‭4‬:‭9‬-‭10‬

Join us in praying for The Locklear family and for missionaries to be called forth from our churches and our people.

For years, International Mission Board missionaries have prayed for God to send workers among the First Nations of Canada. The Lord has answered those prayers. This year, RJ and Elayna Locklear have been commissioned to serve Canada’s First Nations — who are indigenous to the country — in and ...
