Estela Herrera Hernandez
Pastor of: Templo Esmirna #4

Hello, my name is Estela Herrera Hernandez. My husband, Antonio, and I have been in ministry for 25 years. Our church, Templo Esmirna #4 (Temple Smyrna #4), loves to serve and work hard for our community. Our goal is to build rooms in our church where we can host people that need a place to stay. Our hope for our community is that they all would come to know God, receive the Lord in their hearts, and continue to seek and serve Him.

Welcome Video

Hello. My name is Zachary but feel free to call me Zach. I am from the mountains of Hendersonville, NC. I went on my first Casas trip to Juárez in 2012, and it changed my life. I knew I had to return to this city. Over the next 5 years, I was able to be a part of more than 10 builds in the city of Juárez. I graduated from Full Sail University in 2014 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Show Production and Concert Touring where my love for videography came about, and now I get to use those talents for Casas. Even better, I get to serve this incredible ministry with my wife, Paige Bryan. They call us P&Z, and we are looking forward to building relationships with you all.

Hey, I’m Sid! I’m a student at the University of San Diego and am pursuing a major in International Relations with a minor in German. When I’m not working on school stuff, I enjoy photography, reading anything written by C.S. Lewis, playing frisbee, and hanging out in coffee shops. Edmond, Oklahoma is home to me, and during high school, I began attending The Well Church, which is how I was first introduced to Casas. The Well builds in Acuña every spring break. By the end of my second trip, I was on fire for the ministry, and there wasn’t much else I wanted to do with my life. During the summer after my senior year, I was able to do Team Casas in Juárez. After returning home, I felt God pulling me to apply for the internship. So, here I am, and I’m stoked to be able to spend my summer working with this team of individuals and serving some incredible families!

Welcome Video

Hello there! We are the DeLongs and had our first child, Brantley, in June 2018! We both came to love missions, and ministry in general, from a young age. I (Kiersten) went on my first mission trip when I was 15 years old, and while it was not a Casas trip, it was the first time I had heard about Casas. Spencer was 16 when he went on his first build with Casas in Juárez. A few years later, Spencer and I found ourselves studying ministry at Lincoln Christian University where we graduated with degrees in Youth/Preaching and Missions. Since then, we have served in youth ministry in Illinois and were able to lead a trip to Juárez in 2014. Most recently, we’ve been working for Lincoln Christian University and got to lead a group of college students to Guatemala in 2018. Thus, when we received the opportunity to join the Casas team full-time, we could not say no. We are always excited to see the way that God is moving among His people. To be a part of the Casas team and partner with both the local and global Church to create more opportunities for the Gospel to be shared is something that seems to bring our experiences, callings, and passions together in a pretty perfect way. We are excited to see what is to come in the years ahead.

Hi, my name is Chloe Unruh. I graduated in 2019 from Manitou Springs High School in Manitou Springs, CO. I love being in the mountains every chance I get. My parents recently moved back to Odessa, TX, and I followed them there. I have been on five mission trips with Casas por Cristo and have been very interested in an internship since I was a junior in high school. I am super excited to see what God has in store for me these next three months, and I am looking forward to spreading the love of God to not only the people we are building the house for, but also the groups we are leading.
