“Somebody needs to care enough to bring the Deaf to the feet of Jesus!”Joe Kotvas – Pastor/Missionary

I was born in Arequipa in 1973. I received Christ when I was 22 years old at Hunter Baptist Church with the missionary Austin Gardner and pastor Carlos Marquina.

I graduated with a teaching degree in Arequipa, and worked for several years in different schools there, until I joined the ministry of the Christian school in Hunter Baptist Church. I took courses in the Baptist institute of Hunter Baptist Church, worked in the nursery, and became a Sunday School teacher. When I married, I joined Abundant Life Baptist Church in San Jose de Tiabaya, where my husband pastored.

On May 16 of 2007, God touched our hearts and we transferred to the city of Lima to work in the school ministry for deaf children of Efata, where we are currently serving our Lord.

Please pray for us.
