My name is John E. Velazquez, born June 21, 1970 in San Juan, Puerto Rico, age 52. I am married to Loyda Santiago for 32 years and father of two sons and grandfather of two granddaughters. I am currently overseeing the Delaware District of the Church of God and have been pastoring for over 10 years the IDD CDR in Milford, DE. In 2021 we officially founded Lifting Hands Ministry, although we started as a ministry in 2018.
I have been honored to have experiences in the missions field from my childhood to the present. We also have academic studies in the subject of missions. Until today we continue to work with local missions, social works and cross-cultural missions in ministerial and mission care.
