Cities - Hispanic Majority
1. The Hispanic population is greatly impacting the social, economic, educational, and religious landscape of North America.
2. Major national and multinational corporations and entities are making significant adaptations in their personnel, structures, and strategies to respond to this reality.
3. The rapid and widespread growth of North America’s Hispanic population sends Southern Baptists a clear message that we cannot reach all of North America for Christ without making an unprecedented commitment to evangelize and congregationalize this Hispanic mission field at our doorsteps.
Strategic Observations
4. The new forms of growth and new areas of settlement across the nation’s landscape suggest the need for new ways of thinking and strategizing regarding the Hispanic population in its diverse composition in this country. This has significant implications for all Southern Baptist entities (churches, associations, state conventions, and agencies).
5. These Hispanic population trends seem to follow discernable pathways likely to carry into the future and should be taken into account in the development of strategic plans.
