Rafael Padilla Community: Las Albellanas Church: Bethel Assemblies of God. My job is to preach the gospel of Christ to all people who have not known the word of God, nor received their salvation, evangelize and motivate all members of the congregation to ministry. I accepted God in my life 12 years ago, I gathered with my family in Bethel Church, from the moment I made the decision to give my life to God I prepared to work in his work, four months later I was baptized in water, and I decided to preach the gospel in my community and outside it. There was a time in which I moved away from God because of family problems, but my heart longed for his word and his mercy, and look again from him, four years ago I received the call to pastor the Bethel church where I have gathered for years, have been very hard times in which God has worked with my life, started with 10 members and I currently have 39 members in total, being able to share the love of God to people has filled my life with satisfaction and joy, I hope to continue working on his work, until God so decides.
Pastor Santiago Zelaya Aguirre
Pastor Santiago Zelaya Aguirre of San Francisco Church. I bring reinforcement to the pastors of the communities, and to the congregation in general, cause them to work in the work of the Lord Jesus as well as the revival in their spiritual lives. I accepted the Lord at the age of 38, I lived all my adolescence and youth in alcoholism, until one day God had mercy on my life and called me to his salvation, my early years were full of bitterness and loneliness until God taught me that I could live differently, today I am a good person and dedicated to my family and to preach the gospel of Christ to all the people who need it, I have lived in the gospel for 32 years and it was the best decision I could have made. God called me to the pastorate, and it was then that I began my work in Bethel Church of the Assemblies of God in the Albellana community for 6 years, then I moved to the Gethsemane church in the community of Carrizal, I was her pastor for 12 years and God did great things in the life of the inhabitants of the community, they moved me to the shaddai church in the community of San Francisco, where I was pastor for 14 years, and because of my age they retired me. I continue to serve my Master, wherever I go the word of God goes with me and I share it with all the people inside and outside the communities. I am working and will continue working on his work until God decides to take me with Him.
Pastor Emerito Reyes
Pastor Emerito Reyes: I accepted God in my life 35 years ago, since I made the decision to give my life to the gospel I started working in the community of Albellanas as leader and deacon of the church, but also evangelized the Nancital community giving classes to children and leading the youth. During that process, I had the opportunity to prepare myself theologically in an institute.
It was October 25, 2012 that God moved me to the community of Bacacan where the Shalom church was founded. I have been a pastor for seven yeas in the community and God has always been faithful. The work has grown and we have rescued many souls from the devil. I currently have leaders who support me in different areas. I will continue working on what I have been called, I hope in God to be able to fulfill the goal of reaching the whole community to Christ.
