“WHEN A STRANGER SOJOURNS WITH YOU IN YOUR LAND, YOU SHALL NOT DO HIM WRONG. YOU SHALL TREAT THE STRANGER WHO SOJOURNS WITH YOU AS THE NATIVE AMONG YOU, AND YOU SHALL LOVE HIM AS YOURSELF, FOR YOU WERE STRANGER IN THE LAND OF EGYPT: I AM THE LORD YOUR GOD.” LEVITICUS 19:33-34 ________________________________________________________________________________________ At New City East Lake, we believe, in order for the church to be transformed, our neighborhood and our church must be engaged with the gospel. We believe the East Lake community, with its diverse population, is the place God has called us to serve. If we fail to reach the people who have immigrated to our city, we have not fulfilled God’s call to disciple our neighbor. The vision of Latino Ministries is to equip Latinos to be an active part of a cross cultural worshiping community, centered in the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and Producing discipled believers who become God's instruments of grace, justice, and mercy. |
