Pastor
Elvis Rodriguez Ortega
Iglesia Cristiana Cristo Redentor
Pastor Elvis is already a PPM365 partner and enrolled in the program, but you can make a donation in their honor and support another church in Puerto Rico.
Pastor Testimony:
Pastor Elvis accepted God as his Lord when he was 10 years old. Before he did, his desire to know God lead him to read the whole Bible. When he became a member of the church he already knew more about the Bible than most Christians. He married in 1995, and has a daughter. On November 21, 1996, while Elvis was serving as an Evangelist, there was an explosion in Rio Piedras while he was in the area. He suffered from PTSD due to this event, but it worked to bring him closer to God & lead him into ministry. He is a full time pastor. His desire for his community is to serve them & for them to know God. He wants to use the opportunity provided by the needs and the teams that are coming to serve & talk about God. Each need creates a door for the gospel. He would also like to be able to minister more kids from different communities nearby.
Meet the church:
Iglesia Cristiana Cristo Redentor
Iglesia Cristiana Cristo Redentor is located on Barrio Piñas in Toa Alta, Puerto Rico. The church building used to be a house. One of the strongest ministries of the church has always been evangelism. After Hurricane Maria, the church had the opportunity to spread the Gospel through service projects in communities with a high population experiencing homelessness. After the earthquake in 2020, the church building structure was compromised, so they took the opportunity to demolish it and build a new structure, with a bigger space to count for the growing congregation. They have kept working in the communities around the area, and God has been providing everything needed.
