Jose Gregorio Matheus, 65, Gifted with Unwavering Faith

A "general" of the faith and a most dedicated warrior for God, he was passionate for The Word and was gifted with the most precious gift – unwavering faith. Unfounded in the natural realm, his foundation was in The Kingdom of God – to him, ‘No’ was not an answer for there was nothing His Father couldn’t do.

Jose was an obedient son to his parents, Ana and Carmelo. A beloved brother to German, Marco, Ricardo, Carmelo, Ivan and to his best friend, Hilda. He was a Spiritual Father, Founding Pastor, Evangelist, Cheerful-Giver, Scholar, Missionary, Mentor, Counselor, Visionary, and Friend. A loving uncle to his nieces and nephews, who counted on him as a father and a friend. He was commissioned by God and his church to ignite the flame of revival in his home, Venezuela – imparting ‘La Mision’ to 3,000 pastors. He was a friend of God.

As a husband, to his beloved wife and eternal girlfriend, Carolina, he was protective, loving, adventurous, spontaneous, a spiritual father and mentor, an encourager, a romantic… He kept every promise to honor her in life.
