Pastor Arnulfo Rodriguez Jr. is a devoted servant of Jesus Christ whose life reflects the transforming power of God's love, grace, and redemption. Having overcome a past marked by hardship and adversity, his life took a remarkable turn in 2004, when he surrendered his heart to Jesus Christ. Through that life-changing encounter, God transformed his struggles into a testimony of hope, restoration, and purpose.

With more than 22 years of ministry experience, Pastor Arnulfo has faithfully answered God's calling to serve others with humility, compassion, and unwavering faith. His ministry journey includes prison outreach, community feeding programs, youth mentorship, pastoral counseling, and personal discipleship. His greatest passion is leading people to Christ, helping them discover their God-given purpose, and encouraging them to grow in their relationship with the Lord.

As Senior Pastor of Crux Journey Church, Pastor Arnulfo leads with a shepherd's heart, believing that ministry is not about a title or position, but about serving God and loving people. His vision is rooted in Luke 9:23, encouraging believers to take up their cross daily, follow Jesus, and walk alongside one another through every season of life.

Serving faithfully alongside him is his wife, First Lady Gloria Ann Rodriguez, a woman of faith, prayer, and compassion. Her dedication to serving others, encouraging families, and supporting the vision of the ministry reflects her heart for God and His people. Together, they share a passion for strengthening families, building meaningful relationships, and creating a welcoming church community where everyone can experience the love of Christ.

Beyond their calling to ministry, Pastor Arnulfo and First Lady Gloria are blessed with four children and four grandchildren, whom they cherish as some of God's greatest blessings.

Together, they are committed to leading Crux Journey Church with love, integrity, and a servant's heart, reminding others that no matter their past or present circumstances, God has the power to restore lives, renew hope, and create new beginnings.
