Gospel City Church has been sending teams to Puerto Rico since 2020. We continue to deepen and serve Pastor Jorge Santiago of One Church Comerio and the people of the community. Here’s Pastor Jorge’s heart for the church:
On September 20, 2017, Hurricane Maria hit Puerto Rico, changing history forever. Rebeca and Jorge were heartbroken when they visited Comerío two days after. They left their house every day, early in the morning in search of supplies to take the people in Comerío. Loving the community genuinely caused people to want to hear about God. That is how One Church Comerío was born, on the foundation of love.
Our partnership with SEND Relief and Puerto Rico continues to be strengthened as we look at 2026. The discipleship that is happening week-to-week through churches like One Church Comerio and others is amazing to see. We have this opportunity to come alongside local churches in Puerto Rico to help meet physical needs that have come about through the impact of hurricanes, earthquakes and other natural disasters.
As we continue our efforts in Puerto Rico, we are even more focused on how these short-term mission trips can have impact that resonates locally as well as globally. Our teams are committed to actively engage and share the Gospel message with their friends, neighbors, family, and community long before they step foot in Puerto Rico. We are committed to leveraging the talents, treasures and time that God has given us to live sent here as we plan and prepare to live sent in Puerto Rico.
