Carlos Cervantes Obituary

Senior Pastor and founder Carlos Eduardo Cervantes, a beloved husband, father, grandfather, friend and faithful servant of God, entered into eternal rest on April 20, 2025, on Easter Sunday. Though our hearts are heavy, we celebrate the beautiful life he lived- a life of unwavering faith, love for all, shepherding others with grace and compassion for over 30 years. He devoted himself to ministry guiding his congregation not just from the pulpit, but even from the hospital. He was known for his tremendous personality, captivating smile, comforting words, knowledge, and powerful sermons that uplifted hearts and pointed many to our Lord Jesus Christ. Pastor Carlos was a devoted father. His family knew him as a source of endless encouragement. Whether leading Bible study or spending time with the family, he lived each day with purpose and kindness. His faith wasn't just spoken- it was lived. "Well done, good and faithful servant." -Matthew 25:23 El pastor y fundador, Carlos Eduardo Cervantes, amado esposo, padre, abuelo, amigo y fiel siervo de Dios, entró en el descanso eterno el 20 de abril del 2025 a la edad de 68 años. Celebramos la hermosa vida que vivió: una vida marcada por una fe inquebrantable, amor por su familia y un llamado a pastorear a otros con gracia y compasión. Se dedicó al ministerio por más de 30 años, guiando a su congregación no solo desde el púlpito, sino en cada visita al hospital, bodas, bautismos y momentos de oración. Era conocido por su sonrisa, palabras de consuelo, conocimiento y sermones poderosos que elevaban corazones y guiaban a muchos hacia nuestro Señor Jesucristo. Más que un pastor, fue un padre dedicado a su familia. Reconocido como una mano firme, un oyente atento y una fuente inagotable de aliento. Fuera dirigiendo estudios bíblicos o pasando tiempo con la familia, vivía cada día con propósito y amor. Su fe no solo era hablado, sino vivida. "Bien, bien siervo y fiel; sobre poco has sido fiel, sobre mucho te pondré; entra en el gozo de tu señor." -Mateo 25:23 To send flowers to the family or plant a tree in memory of Carlos, please visit our floral store.
