LORENZO (2012) & MICHELLE (2011) ZAMORA
LEADER/CO-FOUNDER-2011-12
Living in Fresno, California the Zamora's have dedicated their lives to sharing the Gospel of Jesus and reaching out to the broken and hurting.
After her oldest son's 7 year Methamphetamine addiction & life of crime Michelle quickly learned the pain of having a child lost to the streets and the system. Knowing Jesus Christ was her only source of peace and hope she wanted to offer the same to others and began ministering outside the Fresno County Jail in 2011.
As another mom joined her the ministry began as, Moms Praying for Moms.
Shortly after, she married her husband who joined her. Lorenzo's past of gangs, crime and incarceration compels him to hit the streets offering hope to those who live the lifestyle he once lived.
Both Michelle and Lorenzo share their testimonies and the Gospel in hopes of leading others to Christ, offering a new beginning to all who will receive it.
