Joaquin

I'd like to meet:

YO ESTOY AQUI PARA COMPARTIR ESTE MINISTERIO CON TODOS LOS SANTOS QUE ESTEN INTERESADO EN HACER ALGO PARA LAS ALMAS QUIEN ESTAN DETRAS LAS REJAS. No estoy para cosas politicas, si no es edificante para mi espiritu o ministerio, no lo quiero oir! I AM HERE TO SHARE THIS MINISTRY WITH ALL THOSE SAINTS WHO WOULD BE INTERESTED IN HELPING TO DO SOMETHING FOR THE SOULS BEHIND THE BARS. I am not her for political issues unless they have to do with religious freedom, spiritual edification or the prison ministry. Joaquin Donato PO Box 383 Northumberland, PA 17857<>

Music:

My personal likes varies according to the message the song has. I was blessed to have grown up in a Praise and worship home. My brother Rev. Milton E. Donato who played the piano, my mother Ruth Donato who played organ and accordian. It seems that the family has that Gospel blood in them. My cousin, Rev. Abe Donato of Danville, PA is a Prison Pastor and singer. I prefer hymns with a Christian relationship message and Salvation. Favorites are many but include: Personally I don't like rap or reggaeton or any thing that is repetative. But I DON'T take away from presenting it to the masses, because he made us fishers of men. We fish them, let him clean them. Let us not condemn. Mi familia fueron y son ministros, de musica, de iglesias, de misiones, y a mi me gusta todo tipo de musica Crisitana despues que no sea rap o reggaeton. Pero no condeno el uso Cristiano de ellos para traer las almas al Señor. Requerde somos los pescadores de las almas, es Cristo y El Espiritu Santo que tienen que ser la obra y cambio en los corazones y almas de ellos. Yo he sido bendecido por muchos hermanos y familias con las musica de Dios. La familia Dones, hermanitas Rivera, La familia Libbey que menciono unas cuantas veces aqui. Como Cepeda, Velasquez, Feliciano, Sanabria, los trios cada uno de ellos tiene su ritmo y su madera de presentar la musica cristiana. Cada cultura tiene su musica. Algunos de los himno favoritos mios son: Nadie pudo amarme como Cristo
Cuan Grande es El,

En El Monte Calvario, Mi Dios es Real, Sumergeme, Cuando el Vino a mi Corazon, Sembrare, Los Niños son de Cristo, Los Pioneros de Pentecostes, Somos el pueblo de Dios, EL mundo no es mi Hogar
