Josué is from Campeche, Mexico and went to live in Mexico City when he was sixteen. After receiving Christ at the age of eighteen, he felt called to be a pastor and studied at the Presbyterian Seminary in Mexico City. Martha grew up in Mexico City and has been a Christian since she was fifteen. She then studied to be a bilingual secretary and met Josué at the San Pablo Church, where they were married in 1979. One month after they were married, Josué and Martha began working as missionaries in Acapulco with the MTW team there, helping to establish five churches in six years. After working two years in Queretaro, Mexico, they returned to Acapulco to pastor the Maranatha church plant for five more years. In 1993, Josué and Martha were asked to come to the border to work with BEAMM in Ciudad Juárez. There they planted the Vida Nueva (New Life) church. In 2000, they handed over the supervision of the Vida Nueva church to Wilbert Frias, and became pastor of the Gracia y Paz church that had been started by Dan and Becky Young. Along with his pastoral duties, Josué served as an instructor at the San Pablo Seminary and as an assistant to Moisés Zapata in the local leadership of the church planters and pastors in El Paso/Juárez.
In 2003, Josue was appointed as the BEAMM Central Regional Director. In October, 2008, the Mayo's moved to Nogales, Sonora, Mexico, to oversee the planting of BEAMM's first work in that city.
