June 13, 2010 (Dr. Walker’s
Birthday)
Precious Child of M’Lord, Some of you may remember me from my travels with The
Reverend Dr. Jerry B. Walker. I am Rev. Gerald Campbell, who drove our coach, Evangeline,
and ran the sound system. For those fifteen years, as we travelled together, Brother Walker had a God-given
concern for missions. Some of you may remember the orphanage in India and the leper colonies in Korea that
The Jerry B. Walker Evangelistic Association, Inc., built and sponsored. Most recently
the JBWEA has supported Victory Christian Children’s Home and Victory Christian Schools in the nation
of Malawi, where I worked for twelve years (although now I am working on a part-time basis). ALL of the
above-mentioned projects are ongoing to this day. So what was the
reason that Brother Walker was so interested in missions? TO RAISE UP PASTORS AND TEACHERS AND EVANGELISTS
TO FURTHER THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST.
Now we have a mission opportunity that is almost unbelievable
and has fallen into our laps. The Reverend Dr. William Mark Bristow, pastor and the President
of The Jerry B. Walker Evangelistic Association, who was hand-picked by Brother Walker, has been asked by
literally hundreds of pastors in the nation of Mexico to start Bible Colleges in the local churches and to teach and preach
the same messages that Brother Walker was well known for: salvation, baptism in the Holy Spirit, deliverance, healings and
miracles. This is the DAY that the Lord has given us to be a part of great revival and
restoration of the churches in Mexico and to see thousands brought into the Kingdom of God. What an honor
to be able to start Bible Schools in the local churches and to teach the FULL GOSPEL to those in such need.
Dr. Mark Bristow and I ask you to consider giving financially
so the pastors in Mexico can be better equipped to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ in their areas. Jerry
B. Walker, who was known as a great revivalist, would have wanted to be in the forefront of an operation like this
one, and we invite you to be in the forefront of this opportunity to see the Kingdom of God expanded in the
nation of Mexico.
God bless you in your prayerful giving, Rev. Gerald Campbell,

Not long before he went
to be with the Lord, Jerry B. said to me, “Mark, you go preach because I can’t!”
What a privilege to carry his legacy.
From our churches in the Midland / Odessa, TX, area we have ministered
on the border for years. We have been working in Peru for twelve years, in Bulgaria, Turkey, Romania, and
Greece for about four years – but, in all honesty, I never thought about the interior of Mexico. With
some trepidation, I accepted an invitation to minister in a pastors’ conference in Chihuahua City, Chihuahua (Mexico)
last March. For 3 days, 150 pastors from around the nation sat on the edge of their seats with
spiritual hunger. When the Lord healed a pastor’s wife of cancer and the debilitating
effects of chemo and radiation, the pastors came to me with tears, saying “Will you come and help us?”
When our friend, Dr. Gregory Romine, who directs the College
for Global Deployment (www.collegeforglobaldeployment.org) shared the possibility of extension campuses for authorized
training with these pastors, preparation for extension campuses began immediately in 11 locations. 1) Piedras
Negras, 2) Monterrey, 3) Cadereyta, 4 & 5) Two schools in Chihuahua, 6)Camargo (Tamps, Mexico), 7)Merida, 8)Juarez, 9)
Eagle Pass, TX (border town), 10)Cuidad Acuña, 11) San Antonio, TX (to train Mexican nationals). Dr.
Romine just travelled to 6 of these locations last week, setting up campuses and holding pastors’ conferences with about
200 pastors.
We have a campus of the College for Global Deployment operating
at our church (www.parkerheights.org) in Odessa, TX and this year we will be graduating 7.
The College has been granted a religious exemption from authorization to issue Degrees in Theology and Mission
studies.
Working with Pastor
David Corral of Chihuahua City, and Pastor Alfredo Ruiz of Camargo (Tamps), Mexico, we currently have plans for the following
crusades in Mexico:
June 22-23-24,
2010 Pastors’ conference and
Miracle Crusade with 150 pastors in Tuxpan, Mexico, near Veracruz. (Pastor David Corral and Alfredo Ruiz coordinating locally.)
July 27-28-29,
2010 Citywide Miracle Crusade in Bullfighting Arena 7:00
pm each night, Cadereyta, Mexico. (Pastor Silva is coordinating locally.)
July 30-31- August 1, 2010 Pastors’ conference (200 pastors) and Miracle Services in Monterrey, Mexico with Pastor
Vincent Bravo, Iglesia Agua Viva (Church of the Living Water). Pastor Bravo has 16 churches under him with
about 6,000 members. One of our Bulgarian Pastors, Lubo Petkov of Stara Zagora will join us for this conference.
August 26-27-28,
2010 We are finalizing plans with 10 pastors for Miracle
Tent Crusade, Juarez, Mexico. (Pastor Jose Manuel Dalomares is coordinating locally.)
Please pray for
us, and ask the Lord what He would have you to do. Thank you for helping me to say, “YES”
to the call and “YES” to these pastors!
