About Hands Across The Border

Hands Across the Border is a local church ministry of Victory Baptist Church, located in Milton, Florida. Our director, Dr. Gary Schwer and his wife Tammy, have been traveling into Western Mexico since 2005.

It did not take long for them to see the great need for scripture distribution and church planting throughout Western Mexico.

Since 2005 ten's of millions of Spanish gospel tracts, booklets and Bibles have delivered throughout Sonora, Sinaloa, Nayarit, Baja California and Baja Sur by the Hands Across the Border team. In addition to the scripture distribution, HATB has planted five churches and are involved in helping other churches be planted.

The mission of Hands Across the Border is Evangelizing by Local Church Revivals, Soul Winning and Church Planting; Equipping by the distribution of Bibles, Tracts, Hymnals and Discipleship Material and finally Encouraging through Developing National Pastors.

Working alongside Gary & Tammy is Pastor Shawn Cuthbertson and his wife, Krista. Pastor Cuthbertson serves as assistant director and has been going into Mexico with Brother Gary since 2005. Shawn and Krista, Pastor of Liberty Baptist Church in Pine Bluff, Arkansas
