Pr. Ariel Rodríguez

Ariel Rodriguez Diaz was born in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, into a Christian home. He came to know the saving grace of the Lord Jesus Christ at an early age, something that protected him from many of the dangers of the world and marked the course of his life.

He earned a Bachelor of Architecture degree from the Polytechnic University of Puerto Rico and later completed a Master's degree in Sustainability at New England College in New Hampshire, USA.

He currently practices as an architect in the state of New Jersey and, since 2023, has been called to pastoral ministry, serving as an ordained pastor at North Bergen Reformed Baptist Church. He is currently attending Trinity Ministerial Academy, a ministry of Trinity Baptist Church, in Montville, New Jersey.

In 2021, he founded Palabras Sabias Foundation, a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide theological resources, especially books, to pastors throughout Latin America. These materials contribute to a greater understanding of the Word of God, to the formation of ministerial leaders and to the strengthening of local churches.

He is married to Yassiris Reyes, with whom he has two children: Lucille Delanie and Sebastian Ariel. He thanks God for his family, whom he considers an invaluable blessing in his life and ministry.
