Volviendo a casa

Es difícil creer que hace 43 años tomé un autobús con mi mamá y tres de mis hermanas y me fui de El Salvador. No tenía ni idea de a dónde íbamos. Pensando en retrospectiva, no recuerdo haber tenido equipaje, pero probablemente teníamos alguna muda de ropa. No teníamos posesiones reales que llevar. No tenía […]

Going Home

It’s hard to believe that 43 years ago I took a bus with my mom, and three of my sisters and left El Salvador. I had no idea where we were going. Thinking back, I don’t remember having any luggage, but we probably had some change of clothes. We had no real possessions to take. […]

My Childhood And Christian Formation

I was born in El Salvador and spent almost eleven years of my life there. I was a curious, active, independent boy in my childhood. I was highly curious and liked to explore nature. I climbed avocado and mangoes trees, went walking in canyons and rivers with friends, and herded animals. Discovering new things was […]

The Music in My Life

The Music in My Life Scripture is clear that all good gifts come from God (James 1:17). One of his gifts is music which are words set to a melody. I believe God loves music and this is why I think in His Kingdom there will be songs of worship to Him. It is no […]
