NELSON’S NOTES
by Nelson Galarraga
Some of our members (about 9 in total) will be going out door knocking throughout the summer in different parts of Cobb county. We hope to make good contacts, but meanwhile I am studying with six couples and two singles. Some of our members are also studying the Bible with people that they have made contact with throughout this year.
The spirit of the congregation is growing even though we have lost at least five families. Some have left the country, others have moved to other states and two families are not faithful any more. So please continue praying for the Hispanic ministry in Cobb County.
