NEWS FROM CASA DE DIOS
- Manuel Alfaro and Angel Lopez have started assisting in the teaching of Experiencing God at Casa de Dios. Our focus at both churches is to share the Gospel and make disciples. We hope to equip believers like Manuel and Angel to become leaders/disciples who will carry out the Great Commission.
- Jose Luis Sanchez returned to his home in Puebla, Mexico this month. He played bass for El Centro del Senor’s Praise Band. Jose also helped with Casa de Dios. He attended Sunday School/Worship at both churches. Jose also led our prayer time on Tuesday’s at El Centro. We will miss Jose and pray for him as he reunites with his three children in Mexico. Jose came to know Christ through the ministry of El Centro.
- Pastor Mark Caldwell invited Casa de Dios to participate in a one day outreach event. On Saturday, August 7th, North Canton will hold a free yard sale/car wash. We hope to meet new prospects for Casa de Dios. Several Hispanics are expected to arrive.
- Casa de Dios is planning a concert for August 24th. It will be held that evening at Bethel Baptist (Canton). The music group Emmanuel will minister in music along with members from their church in Morganton. Our hope is to get new prospects to attend as well as other Hispanic churches.
