Maybe there aren’t enough people to meet all the needs out there, but choosing to make a difference can truly impact someone’s life. Every day brings new challenges, and I’ve come to understand that helping helps you. Often, witnessing someone else’s struggle puts your own problems into perspective. We get so caught up in our routines that we forget others are hurting too.

I’m grateful to God for surrounding me with people who share the same passion—to help and to speak life through His Word. Eventually, people began to recognize me because I was always giving. That’s when I decided to formally establish Ministerios Maranatha.

God gave me the honor of founding this organization over eight years ago. It started when I saw food being thrown away at a school. I offered to collect the surplus three times a week and deliver it to people in need.

For three years, I did it faithfully—even through illness and radiation treatments. Today, we legally operate with a wider vision: to support anyone in need—physically or spiritually. We now offer food, clothing, hygiene items, toys, spiritual materials, and some medication, and we aim to partner with organizations worldwide to reach even more people, without limits of culture, religion, or nationality.
