“Missionaries to speak here” from the January 18, 1979 Door County Advocate
REV. AND MRS. TORO
Missionaries to speak here
The Rev. Angel and Mrs. Yiyi Toro, missionaries to Wisconsin from Puerto Rico, will be speaking at the United Methodist church in Sturgeon Bay next Tuesday and Wednesday, Jan. 23 and 24. They are appearing under the Sponsorship of the United Methodist Church Board of Global Ministries.
Rev. Toro began his ministry in San Juan, Puerto Rico, at the age of 17 while attending the Inter-American University and the Evangelical Seminary of Puerto Rico. He most recently served on the Puerto Rican Conference Staff as director of stewardship and evangelism. Besides being an evangelical speaker, he also plays the guitar and organ and directs singing. His wife is also a musician.
“I see the Missionary to Wisconsin Program as a call of confrontation to all of us to reaffirm our reason to be the Church of God,” Toro said. “A church constantly needs to increase and renew its missionary spirit.”
While here, the schedule will include the following meetings, all of which are open to the public:
Tuesday, Jan. 23—12 noon, potluck luncheon following by program (baby sitting provided). 7:30 p.m., evening meeting with slides and discussion.
Wednesday, Jan 24—9:15 a.m., prayer group meeting; 8 p.m., worship service with Rev. Toro preaching.
