I'm hispanic, born in South America, been here for over 20 years and little that I knew, the Lord brought me here to humble me and showed me of His majestic plan of redemption and marvelously saved me from my sins. I have a whole lot that I would like to share with you, I actually would like to talk to you on the phone if that is possible, I'm not much into writing, I always thought that listening to someone's voice is more "personal", you know what I'm saying? So if you don't mind shoot me an e-mail and we'll be talking. I live in Oregon, home church, married and with six wonderful children that the Lord has given us to raise for His glory. Waiting for your reply In His absolute sovereign and holy name Bro' Rico Dear brother Lionel,

At the reading of your testimony, it only reminded me in a lot of ways of my own testimony.

I’m hispanic, born in South America, been here for over 20 years and little that I knew, the Lord brought me here to humble me and showed me of His majestic plan of redemption and marvelously saved me from my sins.

I have a whole lot that I would like to share with you, I actually would like to talk to you on the phone if that is possible, I’m not much into writing, I always thought that listening to someone’s voice is more “personal”, you know what I’m saying?

So if you don’t mind shoot me an e-mail and we’ll be talking.
I live in Oregon, home church, married and with six wonderful children that the Lord has given us to raise for His glory.

Waiting for your reply

In His absolute sovereign and holy name

Bro’ Rico

I'm also a seminary student at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary taking classes at its extension center in Michigan. Currently I work full time as a software developer and am in the process of putting together a core team to plant a church in the Metro Detroit area. I grew up in Detroit as a kid and pretty much had an urban outlook on life. But after college my parents left for the 'burbs. In 2004 I bought a house north of Detroit and have an increasing burden to see a church emerge from this context. I'm reformed in theology and am looking for guys in the Detroit area (or willing to relocate here) that are like minded. I was hoping that as someone connected to the black church and who is reformed in theology, you'd know some guys interested in planting a church near the 8 mile divide in Detroit. The intent of the plant is to be racially diverse and missional. It's been tough for me to find guys burdened for Detroit who are reformed, missional, and progressive. I'd appreciate any insight you have for me. Strength and honor to you and glory to our Lord, Daniel Hi Lionel,
