We praise the Lord for His goodness and mercy these last two months. Pastor Orlando and his wife Hannah are graduates of our Bible college. They have the second church, Pines Park Baptist Church, that we started about 11 years ago.

They can only meet twice a month on Saturday mornings, but the very first service had 15 people in attendance. This new church plant is about 45 minutes from Pines Park Baptist Church. We send some of our own church members to help with the visitation, soul winning, and church services. We thank the Lord for the souls that have been saved there, including several members of Pastor Orlando’s family. Please continue to pray that God will work in hearts so that more souls will be saved.
