Pastor Ramon Alanis, is a teacher and lover of the Word of God. He was called to pastor the congregation of Living Word Apostolic Church in 2001. The church and Pastor Alanis are blessed with the woman at his side, Elizabeth and their children Rebecca and Joel. They live and model the roles defined by God’s Word. While their relationship is not without trials and afflictions, they have demonstrated what it means to trust and believe in God’s faithfulness. Like his favorite character of the Old Testament, Joseph, Pastor Alanis has and continues to seek God’s favor in all that he does.
The key point of his ministry is to always preach God’s Word in a clear and concise manner. The second is to nurture a congregation with a love and sensitivity for God’s Word. This desire has become a reality as the church continues to grow in wisdom and in number. Pastor Alanis has since begun a Spanish Ministry which ministers to the community and continues to flourish.
As a mentor, Pastor Alanis believes many of the youth are seeking to follow after a positive example and pursue the ministry. He is a great believer is providing an atmosphere of love, fun and teaching for the children. We are blessed to have a Children’s Ministry that provides just that. Pastor Alanis is very innovative and not afraid to implement change that will benefit the membership and bring Glory to God.
The mission of the church …”Touching People Through The Spirit of Christ”… has truly been fulfilled as Pastor Alanis has touched the lives of this congregation with The Spirit of God!
