There were 50 people in attendance (30 were local residents) as they met in an employee room on the ground floor of one of the 4 buildings known as Presidential Towers (a population of about 3,000). The regular meeting place will be located in a community room on the ground floor of one of the other buildings, which will be ready for occupancy of up to 200 people next week. The keynote speaker was Pastor Hector Fernandez. Pastor Esteban Lora is serving as interim Pastor.
The El Remanente Church in the Bronx began a cell group in these buildings 1 year ago after about 20 of their brethren moved there, many of them were working or got jobs as maintenance crew. During the year, at least 10 converts were received. They celebrated the first year anniversary with a worship service on a Tuesday night on 05/19/09 with 75 in attendance. There are at least 50 more people they are reaching and ministering to regularly, who have not yet attended these two public services.
Praise the Lord for the church planters that are investing time at Paterson, NJ CPP.
