Plans for
Hispanic Ministry
in Synod Initiated

Representatives from three of the presbyteries in the Synod of Living Waters met in Nashville May 14-15 to explore possibilities for cooperation and networking in Hispanic ministry efforts. They made plans for a Spanish language page in Presbyterian VOICE. They met on Saturday at Eastminster Presbyterian Church, headquarters for Hispanic ministry in Middle Tennessee Presbytery and heard about Nations Ministry Center, an outreach program to Nashville’s immigrants and refugees. They heard about Hispanic ministry plans in Sheppards and Lapsley and North Alabama Presbyteries and decided to invite all the presbyteries to participate in a Synod-wide partnership in ministry to immigrants from Mexico and Central and Latin America.
