The article looks at the way in which Latinas in the United States conceived evangelism. It explores the writings of mujerista theologian Ada María Isasi-Díaz in her construction of a praxis oriented model for evangelism based on a strategy of daily-life survival. The concept of interpersonal relationships based on divine transcendence guides the discussion to embrace the arts, especially salsa music as offered to the Afro-Caribbean deities, as a source of sharing good news in a new tune. Thus the article tries to interlace theoria (cultural and social analysis), praxis (reflection and action based on interpersonal relations), and poiesis (the formulation of worship-centered arts such as salsa music in the construction of a postcolonial evangelism)
