Rev. Armando Alvarado

Associate Pastor - Hispanic & Adult MinistriesRole at First Church:
Pastor to Hispanic Ministries and Adult Ministries

Started on Staff:
June 2008

Education/Background:
Before receiving a call to ministry, Armando spent 14 years as a teacher and 3 years as a school administrator in Edinburg, Texas. He has a BS in Chemistry from University of Texas-Pan American, a Masters of Education from UTPA and a Masters of Divinity and a Certificate in Hispanic Ministries from Perkins School of Theology.

Family:
Wife Mariella and three children: Gabriella, Aaron and Noel.

Favorite Scripture:
"Keep alert, stand firm in your faith, be courageous, be strong. Let all that you do be done in Love." 1Corinthians 16:13-14 NRSV

"Mantenganse alerta; permanezcan firmes en la fe; sean valientes y fuertes. Hagan todo con amor." 1Corintios 16:13-14 NIV

Favorite Movie:
I grew up watching Westerns, such as "Gun Smoke," "High Chaparral," and "Riffleman," but my favorite movie has to be "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly."

What I like best about my ministry:
The great thing about being part of God's ministry is being able to meet people and experience life together. It is a blessing to have the opportunity to embrace and encounter the love of Jesus Christ as a community and family of God. Building relationships and creating innovative ways to help each other get through the hard times assures us that the life-giving Spirit is with us.

For fun I enjoy:
Walking, running, bike riding, and playing all kinds of sports. I often read books that share how people's lives have been transformed. However, I mostly enjoy spending time watching my kids laughing and having fun.(817) 481-2559 ext. 122
