Manny's life and ministry reflect his walk with Christ and deep connection with the Lord and Savior. He desires to live in obedience to Christ, doing His will and not his own. His passion is to help students gain a stronger understanding of God’s Word and equip them to defend their faith with confidence. Before ministry, Manny served as a NYPD Detective and, after retirement, pursued his Bachelor’s degree in Biblical Studies and a Master’s degree in Theology/Apologetics. At LFCC, he has been part of the pastoral development program under the guidance of Pastor Scott.

He is blessed with the love and support of his wife, Ketty, and their two children, Manny and Kristina. He loves to praise God daily for the privilege of leading others toward Christ so that they too may experience a genuine relationship with the one true God, Jesus Christ.
