| Miriam and some of the women who work in the church. |
May 31 marked the first of new evangelistic projects by the women of the church in Nuevo Progreso. These projects will take place in the homes of the sisters Josephine, Lidia, Catherine, Lupita and another Catherine, under the leadership of Pastor Gerardo's wife Miriam. Their goal is a great harvest of souls won to the Lord Jesus Christ.

| Meetings are held in homes around the city of Nuevo Progreso. |

| Paola helped serve tamales at one event. |
As each lady hosts a meeting in her home, she invites her family, friends and neighbors to join in the prayer, reading of the scriptures and then in the fellowship. Each hostess provides a meal or a snack. The guests may never become members of the church, but they will have heard the gospel and they will have received much needed encouragement from God's Word.
Often the people feel more comfortable in the relaxed atmosphere of such home meetings. And Jesus instructed us to go out into the highways and byways and exort the people to take up the cross and follow Him.
"And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled." Luke 14:23
