Spanish-speaking Outreach, Pennsauken, NJ

For the past two years, the believers in Pennsauken have undertaken a work to reach Spanish-speaking contacts in the area of the assembly's hall. This includes a Friday night outreach with up to 70 youth and teens attending. On Sundays, there is a bilingual Sunday School class with a Spanish Gospel message presented following the Sunday School time. As the Lord has blessed in salvation, time has been set aside on Sunday afternoon for a bilingual discussion of assembly truth. Also for the last year, the assembly has held an ESL class on Saturday mornings which has been an encouragement to existing contacts and fostered new contacts in the gospel including some Vietnamese families from the neighbourhood.

The work has been furthered by the faithful witnessing of Spanish-speaking sisters from the assembly and with support from preexisting Spanish language outreaches being carried out by believers from Barrington, Olney, and Hatboro and the work at Castor Avenue in Philadelphia.
