Pastor Juan

Pastor Juan P. Barrientez II was born February 20, 1975 to Juan and Vanessa Barrientez. He Accepted Christ at an early age and was baptized November 1, 1985 at St. Luke Baptist Church, in Spencer Oklahoma. Although he grew up in church, once he became a teenager he begin doing life his way. The Bible declares in Proverbs 22:6, “Train up a child in the way he should go; and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” Being raised in the church did lay a foundation for the word of God to be manifested in his life. It was one Sunday afternoon in April of 1998 while watching Bishop Charles E. Blake Pastor of West Angeles COGIC, that he truly repented. Now the founding pastor of The Lord’s Harvest Community Church, recognizes that within the body of Christ, “We DO Life Together.”
