Pastor Testimony:
Pastora Ivannia was born in Nicaragua. She married Juan Carlos Treminio, and they have three children: Xochil, Kevin, Katherine, and granddaughter. She accepted Jesus while serving with her mother-in-law in Pavas, San José. She felt called to lead and pastor. She joined the Methodist Churches, where she could lead as the Presbitero (Highest Leadership in the Methodist Church in Costa Rica), and studied theology. She is now finishing a Master's Degree in Theology and Bible Studies. The Lord called her into ministry through a dream when she was 9 or 10 years old. She was looking at the sky and heard God send her a message from the stars, "Go and teach, go and preach." So, at 33 years old, God made good on that promise and she joined the Pastoral Ministry with her family full time. She has 15 years of service at Iglesia Evangélica Metodista de Costa Rica and 10 years serving at Iglesia Evengélica Metodista Agape, La Guaria.
