On Saturday, September 21 2019 we introduced a new group of people to an old/new spiritual, innovative adventure as our first Spanish-language dinner church event invited those present to see, feel, and touch how Jesus’ unconditional love for people was and is demonstrated around a table.
It’s our hope that in Expresiones Divinas, marginalized and destitute persons will find a safe place closer to Jesus’ heart.
It was such a powerful experience where the presence and power of God touched and transformed lives throughout the day!
The energy, worship, testimonies with tears, and action steps offered lifted our spirits for a new day for dinner church in the Hispanic community areas in Chicago. The day opened participants’ hearts and eyes to pray, examine, and consider new God-given possibilities to meet people where they are and hear what God is already doing in their midst.
Rev. Eliseo A. Mejia, Director of Expresiones Divinas, had this to say:
“Pastors and lay leaders left motivated, inspired, and passionate for Jesus Christ willing to reach people in any place or situations. The conference ended, and when we left, we found another group praying and interceding for the city of Chicago. I heard passionate and unwavering prayers calling their hearts to be on fire!”
Dinner-church offers endless venues for church to take root in the street, neighborhood, parks, factories, restaurants, homes, and in places where God is already working supernaturally.
Where do we go from here? A couple from Colombia has asked us to bring Dinner Church to South America.
You can request we bring a one-day Expresiones Divinas or a Spanish-language Dinner Church Encounter to your church or organization.
