“Members of Gethsemane Pentecostal Church of Kansas City crowded around their new pastor, Sergio Martinez, at Columbia First Assembly of God to lay their hands on him in prayer for the success of his new Hispanic ministry in Columbia – the church’s fifth plant in the state in 21 years.

Martinez, 27, left the crowd wiping tears from his eyes. Originally from Juarez, Mexico, Martinez moved to Kansas City three years ago specifically to become a Pentecostal minister, he said. Martinez started his Hispanic congregation this summer, and Columbia First Assembly of God is hosting them. So far he has 12 members in his congregation, called Gethsemane Pentecostal Church of Columbia after its parent church, but only one family of four and one other member of his congregation were present Sunday for the official celebration of its founding.”
