Hello, Amigos!
The
Lord has blessed us at First Baptist
with members who demonstrate their love
to their Lord and Savior Jesus Christ by
the way they seek to reach out to all
people in Mayfield. In recent years, our
community has been inundated by the
influx of Hispanics. FBC members have
not wasted time in seeking to win them
for the Lord.
But
before winning them for the Lord, our
members realized that there were needs
to be met within the Hispanic community.
First of all, Hispanic people coming to
the US face language and cultural
barriers, not to mention discrimination
and prejudice. Life becomes very
difficult as they try to adapt to their
new home.
FBC
Mayfield has responded by creating a new
Hispanic Ministry with various community
outreach ministries, actively seeking to
meet some of the Hispanics needs while
at the same time proclaiming the gospel
of our Lord.
This
ministry exists:
·
To
bring Hispanic non-believers to the
knowledge of salvation in Jesus Christ
·
To
lead the believers to a new
understanding and appreciation of God
and of His work
·
To
guide believers to demonstrate their
love and gratitude to Him in commitment
and obedience to His word
·
To
encourage believers to live out their
love for God by serving one another
·
To
encourage believers to live out their
obedience to God by reaching out to
those in need
We
invite you to take a look at our
ministry. If you feel led to do so,
please contact us with your comments and
suggestions. We would love to hear from
you!
