Mario Requena

Iglesia Nueva Vision

Pastor Testimony:

Pastor Mario Requena was born in November 1962. His early childhood was difficult due to his father's alcohol consumption. At the age of 5, the Gospel reached his family. They started attending Sunday school and began to learn about Jesus Christ. At the age of 9, he became serious about serving the Lord. Together with the youth of the church, they prayed and sought how to serve those in the community. They visited the hospital, distributed Christian literature, and prayed for the sick. It was then that he received God's call to the ministry. At only 15 years of age, he went to study at a Bible Institute and after a year of study, he was presented and accepted the opportunity to start pastoring when he was only 16 years old. His biggest struggle at first was his insecurity about the call to the ministry, but after he got over it he has always been sure. 44 years have passed, and nothing is stronger than the assurance of having been chosen by God. He praises His faithfulness to him and his family.

Iglesia Nueva Vision

Church Nueva Vision was founded in February 1989 in the middle of a month of powerful evangelism, under an old tent set out in the middle of the community. In March 1993, Pastor Mario Requena became the pastor of the church and has always been committed to share the Gospel with his community, praying, and supporting those in need. The church has experienced 34 years of growing and adding members to their fold, producing new ministers who are serving in the ministry inside and outside the community and church body. The course of the pandemic was interesting for them, in the midst of which they worked hard to maintain contact with the congregation and they continued to project themselves to the community in need. This church serves women, young people, and children, guiding them with the Word and serving their neighbors with gladness.
