Who they are

The Tabaá Zapotec inhabit the mountainous region of Oaxaca in southern Mexico. Guardians of an ancestral heritage, they keep their mother tongue alive and preserve strong community bonds grounded in mutual cooperation and family farming. Although the Christian faith has been present in the community for generations, there remains the challenge of biblical discipleship rooted in their own heart language.
