Equipping leaders for kingdom impact<\/strong><\/p>\n

Participants attended breakout sessions focused on discipleship, leadership development, evangelism and outreach, and church planting, along with a special track designed for women in ministry. Each session provided practical training and biblical encouragement aimed at strengthening local churches and advancing the gospel.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want to see a movement of Hispanic churches multiplying disciples and leaders who will reach South Florida and beyond,\u201d organizers said. \u201cThis gathering is about unity, collaboration, and equipping the local church to live on mission \u2018Por Su Reino\u2019 which translates to \u2018For His Kingdom.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Keeping the gospel central<\/strong><\/p>\n

The conference featured keynote messages from Jos\u00e9 Abella, pastor of Providence Road Church<\/a> in Miami, and Raudel Hern\u00e1ndez, pastor of Summit en Espa\u00f1ol<\/a>, the Spanish-language campus of The Summit Church in Raleigh, North Carolina, where J.D. Greear serves as lead pastor.<\/p>\n

Abella encouraged leaders to remain faithful to their callings and to continue building strong, gospel-centered churches that reflect the diversity and vitality of South Florida\u2019s communities.<\/p>\n

Hern\u00e1ndez reminded attendees that above every ministry program or leadership role, believers are called first and foremost to share the gospel with the lost. \u201cBefore we are called to anything else,\u201d he emphasized, \u201cwe are called to proclaim Christ.\u201d<\/p>\n

United for the kingdom<\/strong><\/p>\n

Por Su Reino served as a visible reminder of the growing unity among Hispanic pastors and churches in South Florida, all sharing the same vision to see lives transformed by the gospel.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery time leaders come together with one heart and one mission, the kingdom advances,\u201d one participant shared. \u201cWe leave encouraged, renewed and reminded that we are not alone in this work.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
