Orlando Quintana

Senior Pastor

Pastor Orlando Quintana is the Senior Pastor of Life Church. He became a follower of Christ at the age of 21 through a personal witnessing encounter and after watching a movie about Christ’s return.

Pastor Orlando is also in charge of Outreach. He is responsible for igniting a passion for souls at Life Church, teaching personal evangelism to the people of our church, keeping evangelism in the forefront, and for all of our church outreaches. Pastor Orlando has been attending Life Church since 2005 and joined the staff in 2012. He became Senior Pastor in July 2022. He is frequently heard quoting the Scripture, “For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?” (Mark 8:36)
