Senior Pastor
Daniel Merlo
Casa Restauracion Manantial de Vida
Senior Pastor Daniel is already a PPM365 partner and enrolled in the program, but you can make a donation in their honor and support another church in Costa Rica.
Senior Pastor Testimony:
Pastor Daniel accepted Christ 30 years ago. Through several people, God prepared Daniel’s ministry and life to serve Him.. He did not want to be a pastor at first, but God had it as part of the plan. Daniel accepted that opportunity to serve the Lord and for 18 years he has been a pastor in Parrita. It's been hard, but he is a testimony to the fact that Christ will provide the tools and resources they need to make it. They have seen God's hand working in the church, growing their numbers inside and their outreach to the community. For Daniel, to be a pastor is the most beautiful thing in his life, but also a big responsibility. He and his wife, Flor, have three children (Sandra, Daniela, and Josue).
Meet the church:
Casa Restauracion Manantial de Vida
Iglesia Casa de restauración Manantial de Vida is located in the middle of a large palm-tree plantation in Parrita, Costa Rica. As a church, they want to take the Gospel to their local community and country - not for them to just simply fill seats, but to make the Kingdom of God bigger! The church is mission-minded and continually reaches out to 2 communities in the area. Their witness speaks volumes to those who know them and their church is recognized as a group of people who are different because of how they serve and love. They don’t take that lightly, and give all honor and glory to the Lord. They have truly embraced what Jesus called the Church to do: loving and serving all.
