What God Has Done

by Anna Hiebert Esau

In 1936, the Southern District of the Mennonite Brethren Conference of Churches in North America met for convention in Fairview, Oklahoma, and made a significant decision. The seventeen churches of the district at the time decided to step out in faith and begin a Christian mission to the Mexican Americans living in the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas. From this initial venture the Latin American Mennonite Brethren (LAMB) Conference emerged. Anna and her husband, Henry T. Easu, spent many years ministering in South Texas. It is out of this background that she writes this history of the LAMB Conference.
