Sharing Christ with Hispanic Americans
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
According to the 2000 census, 66.8 percent of Hispanics in the United States are under 35 years of age! Recent demographic projections show that by 2050 Hispanic Americans will comprise some 24 percent of our total population. The United States will soon replace Spain as the second largest Hispanic populated country in the world. Current studies indicate that around 65 percent of Hispanic Americans in the United States already prefer English as their heart language of choice. So, we can safely say that the Hispanic American segment of our population is young, rapidly growing, and English speaking! Are you and your church interested in sharing Christ (in English!) with Hispanic Americans in your community? Contact MNA Hispanic American Ministries Coordinator, Tim McKeown, for suggestions and help, at tmckeownATpcanetDOTorg or 678-825-1225.
