Meet Stephen, Adriana & Little Stephen Muscarella

In 1994, Stephen Muscarella moved to the state of Puebla to plant churches in the mountains. When he moved to Pachuca in 2001, he had left behind 5 churches and several preaching points were opened up.
Their work at present is in Pachuca, which is the capital city in the state of Hidalgo. The city is growing more and more every day, but a conservative population estimate is 500,000. (Click here to learn more about Pachuca).

The focus of the missionaries is church planting in the villages and rural areas. Discipleship and evangelism play an important role in leaving behind a healthy church. Stephen says, "We have always worked in apostolic church planting teams. This serves a dual purpose: the team dynamic helps to lighten our load, and at the same time new leaders are raised up among the local brethren." The Muscarellas are presently involved in church plants in the county of Mineral del Chico, and the town of San Agustin Tlaxiaca. "Our vision is to disciple leaders, and leave behind indigenous churches, which are self supporting, self propagating, and self governing. We also partner with a church in the city of Pachuca which serves as a "mother church" thus giving covering to the village works," says Muscarella.
