La Roca Inconmovible Church (PENTECOSTAL) is a non-for-profit Church ministry located in the City of Albany.
The mission was given to Rev David Ortiz through the work of the Holy Spirit and Confirmed by God's spoken Word.
The Church was formed on the 28th of January in the year 1996 at the residence of Rev David & Maria Ortiz alongside with 7 other (Adult) founding members, including, Elders Victor Pagan and Ana Portugues.
During this time there were approximately 25 members. Rev David Ortiz and his wife, Maria, responded to the 'Calling' of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ to Minister His Word to the Hispanic Community. The calling was confirmed by the Spoken Word of God and Rev David aided to the request of gathering brothers of the faith to conduct services at his residence.
Rev Ortiz then requested the member to pray for 7 days, consecutively, so that a name for the Church could be divinely allocated. After the 7th day of praying, Sisters Maria Ortiz and Ana Portugues were individually inspired with the SAME name for the new Church. This was confirmation that the Church would be called LA ROCA INCONMOVIBLE. Translation: "The Unmovable Rock" .
