Circuit Mission - 2006/08/21 21:53
This is a review of what's been happenning with the Circuit Mission (from our Circuit Counselor):
Notes from the Hispanic Ministry Meetings on June 11 and 25th.
We have a total of 11 people for various churches involved in the effort. The effort will be centered at Holy Cross Lutheran church in Newton which has graciously volunteered people and space for the effort.
The group has focused on bringing the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the Hispanic community.
The group has decided to try to create a opportunity to bring the Gospel to Hispanics through a "Family Night/Bible Study/ Service"
This ongoing opportunity would use three elements :
A Bible Study/Devotion /Service
A meal
Family activities.
The group has been discussing ways to invite members of the Hispanic community including
Invitations from other Lutheran
Radio
Flyers in restaurants and grocery stores etc.
We have learned that it is crucial for outsiders doing outreach to know or at least try to know the language, Spanish. To that end the group will be attempting to learn some rudimentary Spanish.
The group has one person who is a native of Mexico and three others who are fluent Spanish speakers
We ask everyone to pray that God will bless our efforts.
