After moving from Santa Clarita to Nashville, Tennessee, a few years ago, Ricardo (’19) and Ashley Diaz are now a part of Grace Community Church of Nashville. They have grown to love their new community and are thankful for their friendships, opportunities to serve, and the ways the Lord has flourished their family.
The Diazes are encouraged by the faithful preaching of God's Word from the pulpit and the rich teaching in their Sunday school class. They look forward to joining a home community group, where they hope to continue maturing alongside other believers. Ricardo also hopes to serve on the worship team by playing drums and percussion as opportunities arise.
Currently, Ricardo serves as the director of international volunteer engagement with disability ministry Joni and Friends. He equips volunteer leaders serving in 60 countries with a global network of more than 8,000 volunteers. He is humbled and deeply encouraged to see the Lord raise up men and women who are passionate about bringing the hope of Christ to people and families living with disabilities. Ricardo loves the ministry and is grateful for the opportunity to witness God's work around the world.
The Lord has been abundantly kind to the Diaz family, who look forward to continuing to serve Him wherever He leads. They remain grateful for the biblical foundation Ricardo received at The Master's University and rejoice in God’s ongoing faithfulness.
