My Biography

My full name is Angeles Martinez-Casado, I was born and raised in San Juan, Puerto Rico. I am the younger of 2. My parents divorced when I started college and the combination of freedom, ignorance and no fear of God proved to be a temporal weapon in the hand of the enemy. Although I attended a Lutheran Church since I was 10 days old, I only met the Lord when I was 18 as part of a supernatural/divine encounter.

 

Ministerial

I have enjoyed ministerial affiliations with the United Methodist Church- Bayamon, Puerto Rico, the Free Methodist Church-Team Ohio, Christian International, Santa Rosa-Florida, Casa de Alabanza, Lorain-Ohio, Ambassadors for Christ, Columbus-Ohio and All Nations Church-Columbus, Ohio. I am a member of the advisory board of Hannah Ministries and Founder and Research Analyst of ALETHEIA MINISTRIES "Serving God and Men with Gladness" As a minister I have carried "titles" such as Missionary/Evangelist/Psalmist/Worship Leader/Christian Radio Broadcaster/Conference Speaker/Pastor and Preacher. Altogether I have ministered in Spain, Venezuela, Germany, Portugal, Dominican Republic and over 25 states here in the main land and Puerto Rico. I planted a church and have developed several ministries. I served as Senior Pastor of Nueva Vida Columbus – Free Methodist Church and Camino Nuevo Vivo – non-denominational and that I did for 7 years. Currently I am the founder and director of Aletheia Ministries and of Prophetic Purpose Int'l - Watchmen 2010 as well as serve as an Organizational Consultant for various ministries and secular organizations.   

Secular

Secularly I have functioned as Soprano and Sacred Music Soloist, Cultural Diversity Consultant, Ghost Writer, Legal and Medical Court Interpreter and Translator, Community Advocate, Arts and Cultural Executive Director, Founder and Theatre Director, Grant Writer, Event Coordinator, Insurance Agent, and presently I with the printed media and for a very sucessful entrepreneur in Columbus, Ohio.

Personal

Personally I have a profound desire to see the Body of Christ function to its Full Capacity and establish the "real" Kingdom of God. If that requires that I get out of the "spot light" and assist in the development, establishment and support of my brethren that have been graced by God to touch further, go deeper and reach higher than me, then that is what I will do. I believe in healthy, fruitful, lasting relationships. My understanding comes from careful study, practice and exercise of patience, energy and personal inconvenience for the sake of establishing and sustaining a refreshing, loyal covenantal relationship. I have not many of those, but the ones I have mean the world to me. I long to be an active part of what God is about to do upon this earth. In my humble opinion to see the plan of God for the life of my brethren and that completed and to contemplate the possibility of playing a part (doesn't matter how small) to help and assist the Kingdom just for the sake of the glory of His name is my definition of a "prophetic action". I have recently discovered a deeper definition of covenantal words such as loyalty, faithfulness, agape love and servanthood, which I intend to put into practice. This ministry is in place to help in the "reconstruction and restoration of the walls" of our brethren.

All of the above means nothing if I do not remind myself daily that is just for the grace of God that I continue to live, breath, hope and believe. I also must remind myself that in order to live a life worthy of His Presence and Glory I must LOVE Him as well as my neighbor. Love without prejudice, love without suspition, love without ulterior motives, love without restraints, love at the risk of being misunderstood, love at the risk of being hurt, love at the risk of being used, love at the risk of being abused, love at the risk of being loved back, love as a response to His heart, love as a response to His promptings, love because is the right thing to do, love because I can, love because I must, love because it conquers all, love because God is Love.
