The goodness of the Lord has allowed me to labor as a pastor and as an evangelist in His vineyard for over sixty-five years. Three generations of the Ballestero family including my parents, myself, and my children have started ten churches in six states. Every church at some point was considered a home mission’s church. As of 2023, I have preached twelve hundred revivals, five hundred conferences, and over one hundred camp meetings, not counting marriage seminars, banquets, and various other special services. Sometimes services have been held in prisons, on cruise ships, in school auditoriums, in a school band room, in motel rooms, in basements, on front porches, in living rooms, in fellowship halls, in daycare centers, in storefronts, on street corners, in garages, in Goodwill’s corporate office, in civic auditoriums, in a barn, and in church buildings. Not every sermon is preached in a building with a steeple, but where two or three are gathered together in His name, it is still a church.
