Where We Started<\/u><\/h1>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\n

The work of Iglesia Del Camino as it presently stands began with the arrival of Pastor Humberto and Lupe Porras in September of 1992. A small group of believers, led by Pastor Paul Clark, was meeting at the Crane Street site during that time. Outreach began with the help of this small group made up of two faithful members named Vicenta Miranda and Rita Mu\u00f1oz. By the grace of God and the leading of the Holy Spirit the church experienced continual growth and the need for another building in order to continue ministering to the steadily increasing congregation.<\/p>\n

Pastor Porras began to challenge the congregation to believe God and work to prepare so that the vision for growth would be accomplished. After being led to the grounds of the present church site on West County Road, the 13 acre tract was purchased in May of 1999. Work immediately began on clearing out the land, fencing it, and building an outdoor pavilion. In August of 2001 the congregation entered a bond program in order to receive the funds necessary to build the church at its new location. Construction began in 2002 with earnest determination and the majority of work was completed by volunteer labor. The congregation began meeting at the new site in May of 2005 where it continues to meet and enjoy the blessings and growth of our Lord.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>
