Juan Cotto
How have you seen God working in your life?
God has shown me his immense and unrelenting love. He has rescued me from my own vanity and made me aware of his mission to the world. I was born into a devout Christian family, but at the age of seventeen his grace reached me. Since then I have been able to serve him by preaching the gospel in many places in Latin America. Planting a church has become the most exciting task of my life and I thank God for the privilege.
How have you seen God working in your family?
By the grace of God I have a beautiful family. My wife is a tremendous help in my ministry life, my adviser, confidant, friend, and partner. My three children show me the beauty of God. They love the Lord. I know that God is doing an immense job in my children and wife to see them so happy and involved in planting a Communion Church.
How have you seen God working in your church?
We started Iglesia Comunion in 2020 during the start of the pandemic. In Puerto Rico, the restrictions due to COVID-19 were very strong. Everything was closed including temples of worship for more than 5 months. At that time we felt that the initiative would fail. But me and my plantation team decided to continue. We gave Bible studies by zoom, we created a podcast and we developed strategies through social networks. By January 2021 we managed to start our face-to-face services with 25 new people. In February 2022 we presented our first group of members with a total of 45 members of Iglesia Comunion. God has been more than faithful and generous with us. He has been- through the grace door of him.
