I am positively delighted to be able to welcome
you to my home church, the Ray of Hope Community
Church in Nashville, TN. At last you get to see
where I worship and receive spiritual nurturance.
I am reminded of the words of the psalmist, "Lord,
I love your home, this shrine where the brilliant,
dazzling splendor of your presence lives"
(Psalms 26:8).
The Ray is home
for me, the place where God's brilliant, dazzling
splendor allows me to work out my salvation. At
the Ray is where my spirit comes home to after
much travel. Here is where I belong to a family
of believers who support and care about me, who
hold me accountable to my testimony, and who pray
for me when I can't pray for myself. Everyone
should be so blessed as to have a church family
like that of the Ray of Hope Community Church.
I am grateful to
my wonderful husband, the Rev. Martin L. Espinosa,
senior pastor of the Ray who allows me to serve
with him in ministry and to share my gifts with
this great church. I love him for his willingness
to be an unconventional man , an unconventional
pastor, and an unconventional husband in an era
where the pressure is to be an ordinary, conventional,
and status quo man. Rev. Espinosa is a man of
remarkable vision and unusual courage in the things
of God.
Join us at the Ray
of Hope. Every one, every family, needs a Ray
of Hope.
Rev. Renita
