Another Reason for Optimism

New Life Center in Bridgeton, MO has had a thriving Spanish work/church for several years now. They host services in our gymnasium, with socials, etc on their own schedule.

About 3 times a year, we have a joint Spanish-English Sunday night service w/the Spanish church hosting the service - leading songs in both languages, testimonies (w/translation), & of course the preaching with a translator. It's always a wonderful time w/a strong move of God. (Plus, 3-4 people received the Holy Ghost!)

Except Tonight . . .

CNN was there w/a cameraman and microphone guy (gaffer?) racing about service the entire time. Seems CNN is compiling footage for a special report on why so many Latinos in America are leaving the Catholic Church to become Pentecostals.
