Our Pastor
Pastor Ray De Lange has been involved in ministry for almost ten years. While attending Calvin Theological Seminary in Grand Rapids, Michigan he served as intern pastor at Beacon Light Church in Gary, Indiana in the summer of 1999.
He then interned as a pastor at Bethany Christian Reformed Church of Holland, Michigan from the fall of 1999 until the spring of 2001. After graduating from seminary in 2002 Ray was called to be the senior pastor at Christ’s Community Church in Chandler, Arizona, where he served for six years.
In November 2008 Ray and his wife, Angie, moved to Guadalajara at the invitation of the National Presbyterian Church of Mexico to partner with Rey de Reyes Iglesia Presbiteriana (King of Kings Presbyterian Church) in bringing the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the English-speaking people of the city.
