Jose and Jeanette Andrade - Missions Directors
Jose, Jeanette, and Joshua have served at WHTC since its inception and have been directors of missions for over ten years. They have taken teams to --and continue to minister in--several areas in Mexico, including Guanajuato (where Jose is from), villages around Llera, Tamps., Ciudad Victoria, and Rio Bravo. Currently they oversee three churches in Cd. Victoria, Voz Campesina, and Rio Bravo and a mission in Cd. Mante.
The primary objective of this missions ministry is to train up leadership within the local bodies so that they function in all the gifts and operations of the Spirit, and so that they, too, plant churches and raise up leadership, thus enabling the missions team to continue in other parts of Latin America and beyond.
In addition to serving in Mexico, Jose has traveled with other members of the team to minister in Honduras and India. Others have ministered in Ghana, Africa.

Manuel and Melissa have been members of WHTC since 1996. They have been married for 20 years and have 3 beautifully blessed children. They, along with their children, have been a part of and have happily served their local body for the past 13 years. Manuel and Melissa wear many hats in the ministry. They have worked from maintaining the church building and grounds to assisting in administrative departments of the ministry. Melissa is one of the directors at Harvest Christian Academy, a private school and an extension of WHTC. Manuel and Melissa's hearts' desires and passions are to reach out to the local community and share Jesus Christ by teaching the infallible Word of God and its many truths that can be applied to everyday life.
We, Joe and Eva Cruz have been members of the World Harvest Family Church for the last 18 years. In the summer of 1999, we felt a calling to lead the childrens' ministry. With no reservations, we jumped right in and have seen the glory of God in full manifestation. At our first meeting, eight children attended. Since then we have had as many as 60 children in one service, and now have about 40 children that attend regularly. Most children come from our school, Harvest Christian Academy, and some invite their cousins, friends, and neighbors. We praise our Heavenly Father for this tremendous opportunity to be a part of their lives and instill God's Word for their future. In January of 2004, the Lord blessed us with a beautiful baby boy, who is now 8 years old. He, too, is a big part of our ministry and will one day take over in God's Kingdom to do what God has planned for him. In everything we give God thanks and we count it all joy! Glory be to the Most High God!
