Mauricio was born and raised in El Salvador where he accepted Christ as his personal Savior while Rachel heard the good news and accepted Christ, while living in France.

​

They both found their way to Argentina where they met during their studies at a Bible Institute. They were married in November of 2006, and have two children, Esteban (2010) and Lidia (2014).

​

They served the Lord in El Salvador for more than 10 years in an evangelistic pastoral ministry at a national level bringing The Gospel to schools and jails, doing medical campaigns, dramas, musicals, etc.

​

They also had a pastoral ministry with the youth of a local church in the capital of San Salvador.

​

In October 2016, God brought the Pruneras to Normandy, and placed them in Saint-Lô. God has been leading them to plant a French speaking loving Bible church with open doors to everyone (French and foreigners) in this city. They’ve already started this process with regular Bible studies in their house and continue seeing the hand of God in this place and once a month they rent a room in a Hotel of the city to celebrate their meetings.
