Pastor Jose H. Cortes Jr., Director of Adventist Youth Ministries, with his wife Joanne, and their sons Jose III & Joel Benjamin.


On behalf of thousands of Teens, Young Adults, Kids, and of course, many adults who are involved in Adventist Youth Ministries in our Conference, I would like to say Welcome to 2008. God has given you a brand new year; I pray that you are already taking advantage of the many opportunities God is putting in your life. By the way, that’s nothing; He has lots of great things in store for you, things you can’t even imagine. Just be faithful in 2008.
