Meet the pastor sponsoring this family

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.

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.

Hey. I'm David Griffith, and I joined staff in February of 2018. I’m originally from Monroe, Louisiana, where I also attended college and studied Construction Management. I came on my first trip with Casas my freshman year of college with my campus ministry. After going on a couple of trips, I felt that God was calling me to do an internship. I spent the summer building houses in Juárez, and it changed my life! That is where I met my beautiful wife, Victoria, and first felt that God was calling me into full-time ministry. A year after I graduated from college, I applied to come on staff with Casas. Two months later, my wife and I made the move to El Paso! We are loving it here and are so excited to see the ways that God works through this ministry!
