Throughout his life, Rev. Juan inspired others to lead purpose-led, authentic lives. Rev. Juan believes we have a sacred opportunity and a sacred responsibility to more fully express our divine calling thereby creating more joy, peace and love for ourselves and those around us. He is passionate about people engaging in social justice issues through sacred activism to create a world that works for all. As a result, he and his husband and 5 year old son, Lucas, were plaintiffs in the lawsuit that brought marriage equality to Florida in January of 2015.

Rev. Juan’s story and writing has been featured by GLAAD, the Huffington Post and other publications. He, and his work for social justice has been covered in multiple news sources including NBC, Telemundo and Univision.

One of Rev. Juan’s greatest blessing has been to witness and guide people through the many sacred rites and ceremonies that mark our lives. From a baby’s christening as they enter this new world, to a loved ones Celebration of Life as they make their transition from this world, Rev. Juan finds a heart to heart connection with those he is supporting and allows them to authentically move through moments of joy and celebration, or comfort and loss.

When Rev. Juan worked tirelessly to create the space for marriage equality in Florida, he did so recognizing the sacredness of two people committing their love and support to each other. For him, being able to witness this holy union and officiate weddings has become one of the most humbling experiences in ministry.

Rev. Juan’s one desire is that he can spiritually support and uplift you to recognizing the sacredness of each moment, each relationship and each dream we look to live.
