Tony De la Rosa’s Story Of Courage
John 16:2 “I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now.”
Tony is the Interim Executive Presbyter for the Presbytery of NYC. Listen to his calm conviction as he speaks about his faith and identity.
“People often wonder how I could be serving a church which has a history of discriminating against people like myself. How can I serve that church with faithfulness and integrity?”
“All I can say is I have been graced in my life to experience the immeasurable richness of the love of God. And it’s in some small recompense that I choose to spend my time, my efforts, my energy in serving Christ’s church that has nurtured me in a faith that is wholesome, life-giving and ultimately enriching for me.”
