José serves as an ordained pastor with Missionary Gospel Fellowship of
Turlock, California. This Missions organization ministers to Hispanics and
other nationalities throughout North America. MGF missionaries minister to the

José and his wife, Gladys Ballantine Moreno, married in 1965 in Bolivia
where she was serving as a full-time secretary to the President of the Bolivian
Indian Mission. Gladys was one of Grace Community Church’s earliest supported
missionaries prior to her marriage to José.
José and Gladys served for 30 years in ministry to Bolivia including 3
½ years in Costa Rica preaching and teaching God’s Word in churches and through
home Bible studies. José has served as Director for Bolivia for Every Home
For Christ and was President of the Bible Society and National Churches of

Pastors sponsored by the Billy Graham Association in Amsterdam.
In 1987 José and Gladys moved to California as their daughter was
enrolled at Biola University. Here José served as Director for Child Care
International operating a warehouse on the Mexican border dispensing food and
medicine to the needy in Mexico.
José and Gladys did visitation at a local nursing home for several
years before the Lord called Gladys home to Glory in December 2007.
As a semi-retired missionary, José lives in a missionary community in
Bradenton, FL ministering weekly at a local prison. He distributes and corrects
Bible study correspondence courses for the inmates.
José is celebrating 50 years in the Lord’s vineyard this year, 2009,
and we thank the Lord for the faithful service of both José and Gladys Moreno.
