German Castilla

Bogota - Colombia

I’m Germán, and I think my best description is as a warrior of God. And as a warrior, because I consider that I am determined, brave, intelligent, responsible, strong, dedicated, loving and ready for what needs to be done. I feel that my best facet in life has been given to God, because it is where my talents and gifts are always enhanced at the service of others. I must say that I love dancing, listening, advising, helping, learning a lot about everything and being able to share it with others. Describing yourself is not easy, but I feel that this is what God has made of me, a Warrior ready for his call to serve.

Meneses Maldonado Family

The Meneses Maldonado family is made up of Oscar Meneses and Angélica Maldonado, they have two children, Nicolo, 22, and Laura Sofía, 11. They have a ministry they call Los del Kamino.

In the year 2018 they heard God’s call to serve him as missionaries. They left everything they had in their hometown (job, school, housing, stability…) and went to La Unión, a town 8 hours away.

They left with the firm conviction of serving God, and that of course, it is God who directs this journey, they dedicated themselves to preaching the gospel of Christ for more than 4 years. At this time they formed a church and left leaders in charge of continuing to share the good news of salvation.

At this time in May 2023, again God invites you to move, this time to the City of Cali, to share the love of our Lord Jesus Christ, with the community of Siloe.

Siloe is a very large sector of Cali, characterized by violence, drug addiction, gangs, poverty, lack of opportunities and above all the lack of having God in the heart.

May God always take us by the hand, show us his will, give us wisdom and we can have a humble heart at the service of the creator of Heaven and Earth… because my house and I will serve Jehovah. .

Partieron con la firme convicción de servirle a Dios, y que por supuesto, es Dios quien dirige esta travesía,  se dedicaron a predicar el evangelio de Cristo durante más de 4 años. En este tiempo formaron una iglesia y dejan lideres encargados de seguir compartiendo las buenas noticias de salvación.

En este momento Mayo de 2023, nuevamente Dios los invita a moverse, en esta ocasión a la Ciudad de Cali, para compartir del amor de nuestro Señor Jesucristo, con la comunidad de Siloe.

Que Dios, nos lleve siempre de su mano, nos muestre su voluntad , nos de sabiduría y podamos tener un corazón humilde al servicio del creador de los Cielos y de la Tierra… porque mi casa y yo serviremos a Jehová. .
