Raul & Lidia Torres

Biography

Raul Torres has been married to Lidia since 2016, and they have one daughter: Sarah.

Born in Chihuahua, Mexico, Raul is the son and grandson of pastors, experiencing a profound ministry and missional influence from an early age. The Lord saved him at the age of 8. While pursuing his college education, Raul was introduced to the Doctrines of Grace. Fueled by a deep desire to spread the gospel in difficult places, he, alongside his friend Julio Carrillo, relocated to Chiapas, Mexico, to establish a church through Iglesia Bautista El es la Roca. Later, he extended his missionary efforts to the mountains of Chihuahua.

Returning to Juarez, Raul married Lidia, and both became charter members of Iglesia Bautista Pacto de Gracia (IBPG). In 2020, Raul was ordained as the pastor of IBPG, a church plant initiated by Santa Teresa Baptist Church, Santa Teresa, NM, in 2016, under the leadership of Pastor David Hendrickx.

Under God’s gracious guidance, the church in Juarez has flourished, leading to the calling of David Valadez as a deacon. The congregation delights in the teachings of the Word and the warmth of fellowship.

Currently pursuing a master’s degree in Reformed Baptist Theology at Seminario Bautista Confesional de Mexico, Raul remains deeply committed to equipping the saints for the work of the ministry.

Raul and his family express gratitude to God for the invaluable support they receive from RBNet churches, facilitating Raul’s dedication to the ministry of the Word.
