Saturnina Cabrera Samuel
Pastor of: Iglesia Juan 14:6

I am Saturnina Cabrera. I started my journey as a pastor in 2009, in the small community of Barrero. I have a beautiful family of seven! At the time God called me to Barrero, I was a leader at a church in a different town and did not want to leave. However, I understood that there was a great need in this community. There was a time my husband had to leave home and look for a job, and I remained faithful and stayed in Barrero.

Welcome Video

Hello! I’m Josh. I first worked with Casas por Cristo when I was 16 years old on a trip to Juárez. In 2006, I packed all my belongings and moved from Akron, Ohio to El Paso, Texas to work with Casas as a summer intern. In 2007, I was officially brought on staff as a Juárez Field Coordinator. I married my beautiful wife in 2014, and in 2015 we moved to the Dominican Republic where we served together as Dominican Field Coordinators. In 2017, I took on a new level of responsibility as the Dominican Field Director and now serve as the Vice President of Foreign Field Operations. My time at Casas has been quite an adventure from learning as a young 20 something in Juarez, to being married and becoming a father while serving in the Dominican Republic , to now living back in El Paso, TX with my family as I help lead our foreign locations. No matter what roles God has for us going forward with Casas por Cristo, my family and I are honored to play a part in the incredible work He is doing here.

Omelio Jose Marte Rodriguez
Pastor of: Más Que Creyentes

My name is Omelio Marte, but my friends and family call me Michell. My wife, two children, and I live in Navarrete, and I have been a pastor in the neighboring community, Ponton, since 2002. Before my journey with ministry began, I felt God calling me in a special way. His calling was not very clear at the time, but a voice inside of me was leading me to Navarrete. I began serving as a church leader and led a small service in my sister's home. I asked if anyone wanted to accept Christ, and one person raised their hand; I received a feeling of responsibility. That simple service in my sister's home has led me to the church we have today.

Welcome Video

Hi, My name is Weston Lott. I grew up in Berea, Ohio, and I attended The University of Akron in Akron, Ohio, where I lived for ten years. After college, I worked in the corporate world as a graphic designer for eight years. I first came to know the ministry of Casas por Cristo when I went on a mission trip in December, 2014 to Ciudad Juárez, México. After taking part in my second mission trip with Casas in the Dominican Republic, I was hooked on serving the Lord in this way. I applied and was accepted as a summer intern for Casas in the DR shortly after. That summer changed my life! I am extremely excited to take the gifts that God has given me in design and construction to serve His kingdom with Casas por Cristo.
