Jose and Gladys joined MGF in 1994. They are involved in many aspects of ministry in Bradenton, Florida. Jose has a prison ministry each week in the prison system there. Every two or three weeks they have new inmates because many who are in prison there are there for illegally entering the US and are eventually deported back to their home land.

Jose also visits nursing homes in the area. He has a ministry of helping many residents in the Bradenton Missionary Village, where he lives. He takes them to appointments or whatever else they need. He also has had the privilege of changing air filters for air conditioning units in the 260 cottages there.

Jose enjoys having time in God's Word and in prayer. He attends a Free Church prayer meeting each Wednesday evening. He also has a home Bible study at least twice a month with Hugo.
