Leidy and I live and work in Armenia, Colombia with our son, Oliver. In 2016, under the umbrella of the ZonaJ Foundation, we founded El Nido (The Nest), a local crisis teen pregnancy center.  El Nido provides a safe haven to teen mothers-to-be and new mothers who come from various situations of abuse, neglect, insecurity, and hopelessness.  El Nido offers these teens twice weekly programs for a period of two years, along with access to counselling and economic help as needed.  Leidy is the Executive Director of El Nido.

I (Jacob) also serve as an Associate Pastor of a relatively Newchurch plant, Reunion Colombia.  

  • Pray that God will continue to use the El Nido program to provide a safe haven for needy teen mothers.
  • Pray God will provide the resources we need for El Nido and Reunion Colombia.
  • Pray that we will be given the wisdom we need to help and encourage others through our ministries.
