Pastor Ricardo Hernández moved to Trujillo in 2002, where he was the senior pastor of Larco Presbyterian Church.  In 2008, he and his family moved to Celendín, a small mountain town, to serve as missionaries in that community.  This year, in February, Pastor Ricardo returned to Trujillo to pastor the Arévalo congregation.  He is very gifted in counseling and says that he enjoys getting to know people and identifying with their situations, as well as helping them to personally apply the word of God in their lives.
