Our Pastors

Pastor Cesar Castellanos

Pastor Cesar Castellanos is considered to be a visionary man. When he had no church, God spoke to him and said, “Dream of a very big church because dreams are the language of My Spirit.” From that moment on, God gave him the gift of faith. He has been clinically dead three times, but has had very powerful encounters with Jesus. God has revealed to him the power of the blood of Jesus; because of it, he has seen supernatural healings and miracles of great conquests. He has been passionate for the souls from the moment he converted, starting his ministry by preaching on the streets. Today, through the G12 Vision he mentors many leaders and pastors teaching them to dream and training them to reach their full potential. Pastor Cesar has a very large church, but the most incredible thing is that it’s not a church of members, but of disciples and mostly leaders. He lives in Bogota with his wife Claudia, is the father of five children and enjoys his 11 grandchildren.

Pastor Claudia Castellanos

Pastor Claudia is a woman of faith. God pulled her from behind her husband and put her next to him. She has a great heart for women, and has built a tremendous ministry of women in the city of Bogota. She has also extended herself in the political field. In 1991, she became the first Christian senator and the youngest. She was the creator of the law “mujer cabeza de familia” (woman head of family law), a law that benefits the single mothers who lead their homes. Its mission is to be an instrument to lower poverty rates in Colombia. Today, she is Senator of the Republic of Colombia and is part of the Foreign Affairs Committee. For people who believed that politics and the church could not be mixed, she has shown them the opposite to be true.

Our main church is located in Bogotá, Colombia under the name “Misión Carismática Internacional”.

What do we believe in?

IN THE BIBLE

It is the Word of God, and although it was written by men, it was guided by the Holy Spirit. (Psalm 119: 11, Isaiah 40: 8, 2 Timothy 3: 15-17)

IN THE TRINITY

One God, manifested in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Although each one fulfills a different mission, they all possess the same power and authority.

1. The Father
God is Omnipresent, He is Worthy, He is Holy. He is a loving and compassionate Father who gave His only Son to give us redemption of our sins. (Exodus 3:14, John 3:16, Acts 17:28)

2. The Son
Jesus is completely human but also completely God. He died, rose again on the third day and ascended to heaven by sitting at the right hand of God the Father. He overcame death through His resurrection. (Isaiah 7:14, Matthew 1: 18-23, John 1: 1, Colossians 1:15)

3. The Holy Spirit
The presence of the Holy Spirit leads us to have an intimate communion with Jesus. He guides believers to all truth and convinces them of sin. He is our comforter and also gives us special gifts. (Psalm 51:11, Joel 2: 28-32, Isaiah 61: 1-3, Ephesians 1: 13-14)

IN THE MAN

Man was created in the image of God, but because of his sin he was separated from God. Each human being was created in a unique way. Only through the cross can repentance take place and forgiveness of sins be obtained. (Genesis 1: 26-30, Psalm 8: 3-6, Jeremiah 17: 5, 1 Corinthians 1: 21-31)

IN SALVATION

The only way to receive salvation is through the blood of Jesus. Salvation is a gift from God and it only happens when people have a heart ready to surrender at His feet. (Isaiah 1:18, Matthew 1: 21, Acts 2:21, Galatians 2:20)

IN THE CHURCH

The church is a community of believers who come together to learn more about the Word of God. It is committed to sharing the teachings of Christ and desires to take the gospel to the whole world. The church works in love and unity to glorify God. (Matthew 16: 18-19, Colossians 1:18, 1 Timothy 4:14, Revelation 21: 2-3)
