NELSON’S NOTES
by Nelson Galarraga

We thank the Lord every day for his love and continuous mercy toward mankind. Throughout the different ministries in Smyrna and Mableton we have been able to meet new folks in our community. Actually, we have more work than we can handle, so we ask for your prayers.

At the same time the congregation is growing, and we are once again equipping more men and women for the Lord’s church. Please keep us in your prayers.
