Ariel Gurdian Gomez President of CR Board

Ariel, a youth pastor and administrator for many years, has a father’s heart and leads the home in Costa Rica with humility and love. He was connected to the ministry of Residence of Life when God called him to pastor our church plant back in the fall of 2023. He quickly recognized the Lord’s leading and began to serve our staff and children, later expressing his desire to help even more. He, his wife Jacke and three daughters have been an answer to many years of prayer and we look forward to the way the ministry will grow under his leadership and experience. Their own family has been impacted by the miracle of adoption and they are passionate to see God’s redemptive story play out in the lives of our kids.
