Description
Born to Dominican parents in New York City, Robert has spent much of his life in both the U.S. and Domnican Republic. He earned a degree in theology from Moody Bible Institute and during his studies was active in the ministry of Lawndale Community Church, Chicago, as well as planting La Villita Community Church alongside Pastor Noel Castellanos. In 1995, Robert and his wife moved into the Colonial Zone of Santo Domingo where they planted Iglesia Comunitaria Cristiana (ICC), a church that has grown in ten years from a small house group to a local congregation of more than 400. ICC follows a wholistic ministry model by hosting gatherings relevant to the secular Dominican culture, small group Bible studies, a gym ministry, a preschool, a clinic, a metal carpentry business, and a sports ministry for street kids. Robert is the founder of the Coordinating Community of Del Camino Network for Integral Mission in Latin America with networks in Costa Rica, Argentina, Chile, Guatemala, Honduras, Bahamas Brazil and the Dominican Republic.
