Diana Cedeño

My name is Diana Cedeño. I grew up on the coast of Ecuador and learned English when I was 11 years old with the hopes of using it as a tool to make money in the future. However, God had different plans with this skill. I was blessed to receive grace and forgiveness from God at the age of 18. Soon after, my desire to serve Him grew and I walked closer to Him. My ability to speak English became the instrument of the Lord as I started translating for mission teams from Canada and The States. Back in 2015 God gave me the most wonderful experience of my life as I was able to attend school in Blue Mountain Christian University.

After finishing school, I came back to Ecuador to serve in Babahoyo providing pastoral support, leadership training and also working with ladies that were victims of abuse. The 10-week program “Mending the Soul” was a way to bring support and hope to many women that were experiencing verbal abuse, sexual abuse, domestic violence and many more. With the help of our good Father, I was also blessed to serve with Pastor Juan Pomavilla and his family in the Community Church of Mamanica.

In 2022 I moved to the town of Milagro. I joined New Jerusalem Church and through their facilities I had been able to serve women, children and youth. This church did not have a Sunday School program before I joined. There was no space for ladies either. I have been privileged to serve the ladies of this community through a weekly Bible study that is currently impacting the lives of 30+ ladies. Also, I am building a group of teenagers and young adults that are faithfully coming each Saturday. Sunday School is now part of the church and is serving children, youth and adults.

In November of 2023 I got married to my husband Ronnie Alcivar and we have served actively as a couple since then. Thank you so much for supporting the ministry of God in Ecuador!
