El Paso Church Shares Hope Through Service

February 18, 2026

EL PASO, TEX. – Throughout 2025, the El Paso Montana Spanish Seventh-day Adventist Church focused on making a meaningful impact in El Paso. Through prayer, service and outreach, the church members brought encouragement, faith and hope to the community in practical, Christ-centered ways.

One way this was done was through frequent nursing homes visits across El Paso. During these visits, members shared small gifts, sang and prayed, offering messages of encouragement, faith and hope. 

A major highlight of the year was a medical outreach crusade that served approximately 110 community members. Services included haircuts, body and facial massages, nutrition consultations, exercise routines, dental care and health screenings. In addition, church members distributed around 500 copies of Steps to Christ and The Great Controversy.

Prior to an evangelistic campaign led by Arturo Quintero, the church distributed 600 copies of these books during Día de los Muertos (The Day of the Dead). Children participated, dressed as angels, along with several youth holding signs that shared the message of Christ’s soon coming. 

At Fox Plaza, a local tianguis (traditional open-air market), children re-enacted Jesus’ birth, a musical group sang and speakers shared a Christ-centered message focused on love, faith and hope. The church raffled off food baskets and toys and distributed 500 copies of Steps to Christ.

Throughout every outreach and event, God’s protection and blessings were evident.
