Oh Cuba de mi alma, sin duda que has recibido las balas, pero ya mismo recibirás las flores que adornarán tu corazón.
Mi corazón arde por el pueblo Cubano. Me siento en deuda con esa preciosa Isla. Aunque soy Puertorriqueño, mi corazón se quebranta por la más grande de las Antillas. Oh Jehová aquí estoy, mándame a este pueblo y lléname de tu Espíritu, para proclamar libertad a los cautivos. Hoy las palabras de la gran poeta Lola Rodríguez de Tio hacen eco resonante en mi alma cuando ella dibujó este pensamiento:
“Cuba y Puerto Rico son
De un pájaro las dos alas,
Reciben flores y balas
Sobre el mismo corazón…”
Fue un hombre de raza Cubana quien me habló de Jesús; fue él quien Dios utilizó para regalarme la gracia del Evangelio. Fue otro hombre, también Cubano, quién Dios utilizó para ser llamado mi primer pastor. ¡Estoy endeudado con Cuba¡ Mis ojos te verán libre mi querida Cuba, mis pies caminarán por tus playas, anunciaré el Evangelio de Cristo en tus costas, en tus valles y aún en tus montes. Porque Dios me ha dado Palabra para ti oh Cuba de mi alma y para ti me ha dado cántico nuevo. Ya nos veremos pronto; tu libertad ya se aproxima. Tu prosperidad ha sido reservada, tus riquezas son incontables y tu tierra aún es virgen. Oh Cuba de mi alma, sin duda que has recibido las balas, pero ya mismo recibirás las flores que adornarán tu corazón.

An independent thinker with a profound call to see the orthodoxy of the church and passion for Christ manifesting together. Angel was born in Brooklyn, New York in April of 1968, he was raised on the beautiful island of Puerto Rico where he earned his B.S. degree in Sociology with a minor in Education from the Inter American University in San Germán in 1991. That same year he moved to Jacksonville, Florida. After working construction jobs for a year and learning the English language, his first job working with foster-care children in the capacity of youth care worker was with Jacksonville Youth Sanctuary in September of 1992. With JYS he was promoted several times as group home supervisor, legal caseworker, and program director.
While in Jacksonville, Angel studied a couple of martial arts styles. After earning his black belt, he became the founder of Good Fight Ministries as he used martial arts as an instrument to preach the gospel. In 2004 Angel was selected Martial Arts Instructor of the Year for the State of Florida and in 2005 Angel was inducted in the USA Martial Arts Hall of Fame where he also received the Christian Spirit Award. In July of 2005 Angel accepted his call to pastor a bilingual church in Winton, NC where he served for a couple of years. Five months later he lost his first wife to cancer in December of that same year. This initiated a deep valley of suffering in his life, a mountain of costly mistakes and the embracing of lifestyles of sin that are well documented through this blog.
In August of 2012 Angel moved to Fairbanks Alaska with his wife Rayette Casiano and six children who are now adults. In Alaska, Angel continued his social work-related career and his ministry of preaching, teaching and writing. Angel is the author of two books, Hope for the divorcee: Forgiving and Moving Forward and 7 Banderas de Esperanza: La Bendición de Yokdzonot. In January 8th of 2020 Angel and his wife moved to Arizona.
