The Pathfinder Club distributed fliers around the community surrounding the church premises days before de activity. During the event they were also in charge of security, they performed a skit and had a marching exhibition to familiarize the community with their activities. We are very grateful for the commitment that each pathfinder showed during the fair and for their Director Zulamir Torres.

The Women's Ministry is actively working in and outside the church so that the community may get to know the gospel through the activities the church offers. For that purpose they meet on a monthly basis to study the Bible, pray and share experiences through a program called "MUCH CLOSER TO HIM".
