Colin Villanueva

Profoundly Impacted

by the least of these

In the 7th grade, Colin was invited to know Jesus as his Lord and Savior at an overnight birthday party by a group of middle school boys. The love these friends showed him changed his life forever. Since that day, Colin has been on a steady path of intimacy with God and ministry for His Kingdom. Colin now boldly proclaims the gospel to all peoples. He wants everyone to know the hope that can be found in Jesus.

Colin earned an undergraduate degree in Communications with the hopes that he might become a public speaker in the corporate world. During his junior year he came to the realization that the only thing he felt was worth his time to speak on was the joy that comes from a life lived with Jesus. Colin has spent the entirety of his career, post-college, working in full-time pastoral ministry.

Colin serves as a middle school pastor in Fort Wayne, IN. Though he initially had little interest in youth ministry, God reminded Colin that it was originally a group of rowdy middle school boys who introduced him to Jesus. Colin’s testimony is an active reminder to all who hear it that sometimes it’s the least of these (Matthew 25:40), or those youngest of us (1 Timothy 4:12), or even the most ordinary (Acts 4:13) that can have the most profound impact on God’s Kingdom.
