Overview

This book is a history about how the small English-speaking Baptist Church in South Chicago encouraged Mexican immigrants who were arriving in the area to find work shared a building in which they could worship and serve God in a Spanish-speaking environment in a Baptist worship service that began in this building in the mid-20th century. We learn about how this particular Spanish-speaking ministry was stablished and how it grew in its weekly morning, and evening worship and other services for over sixty-five years. We learn how particular congregants and their officials served here and in various Baptist associations and conventions to spread the Gospel. The latter part of this books discusses a brief history about how the Spanish-speaking Baptist congregation was the impetus for the development of a new branch of Christians in the early 1960s.
