Josue & Ruth Morales

Florida, USA

Josue and Ruth Morales grew up in the Republic of the Philippines and worked for 25 years training young people for Christian ministry at a Bible school. They thank God for the opportunity to have helped their own country develop mature Christians and leaders who are now "out in the field" proclaiming the Good News of the gospel to their own Filipino people, not only in the Philippines, but also among the Filipino communities in the islands of Hawaii.

 

In 1996, Josue and Ruth answered the call to go to Curitiba, Brazil, and work among street children. During their time there (1997-2008), Josue and Ruth "planted the Seed" and whenever children came to Christ, they were faithfully nurtured to become mature Christians.

 

In 2008, Equip reassigned Josue and Ruth to LaBelle, Florida, where God has blessed them with a cross-cultural community, reaching the different ethnic groups, particularly the Hispanic community. The Morales' continue an active ministry volunteering at the Salvation Army Service Center, interviewing clients to qualify for food assistance, distributing food, sharing devotionals both in English and Spanish, visiting clients whom they have shared the gospel with and inviting them to church, distributing gospel tracts at the flea market, visiting the nursing home, and hosting fellowship dinners.
