There are over 4,000 Hispanics in North Little Rock with little to no one intentionally reaching them for the Gospel. A church plant is needed here to reach these people. You can read more about the Hispanic population in Arkansas below.

The Hispanic people cluster includes people groups from Argentina, Belize, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Peru, Puerto Rico, Uruguay, and Venezuela. There are over 57 million Hispanics in the United States, with over 81,000 in Arkansas, representing all of these countries. Although Hispanic peoples as a whole are not unreached, there are still many unreached people groups among them. There is a great need to plant more Spanish-speaking churches, in part, to adequately address the cultural distinctions among them. The majority of Hispanic people come from a Roman-Catholic background, though many are evangelical Christians. Some also adhere to a mix of folk religious practices as well.

Prayer Requests:

• Pray for unity among Spanish-speaking congregations in Arkansas, and for favor in sharing the Gospel with their neighbors and co-workers.
• Pray that God would raise up more Spanish-speaking leaders to start new works among them.
• Pray for continued cooperation among English-speaking and Spanish-speaking congregations.

Partnership Opportunities:

• Pray! Pray for these requests above, and pray how God would have you become more involved.
• If you live in North Little Rock and Central Arkansas, be intentional with reaching Hispanics you might know or see on a regular basis. 
• If you're interested in planting this church or being involved with this church plant, contact Francisco below.
