A Brief History of Hot Springs, Arkansas
THE WORK BEGINS
Elder Eusebio Prieto began pastoring the Glenwood, Little Rock, Hot Springs District, on September 9, 2004. A year and a half later, Elder Prieto and Pastor Leonardo Castillo held a crusade in the Hot Springs area, resulting in several baptisms.
HOT SPRINGS SPANISH COMPANY ORGANIZED IN 2006
From that campaign was born the vision of planting a new congregation in Hot Springs. On October 21, 2006, that dream was realized when forty-six people signed as charter members of the newly organized Hot Springs Spanish company. They worshiped in the Community Center and began raising money to purchase their own place for worship and outreach (Newsletter, 2006). In 2014, it was approved for the Hot Springs Spanish members to move into the former building of the Hot Springs Fellowship church which had been disbanded several months earlier (Minutes, 2014).
