Pastor Zuniga answered the call of God on his life to pastor Iglesia de Oracin y Alabanza in 1988 in Mesquite, Texas, where he pastored for 31 years. As a pastor, Pastor Zuniga touched the lives of many people. He was known for his commitment to a life of prayer and unwavering faith. He spent much time in prayer and preaching the word of God, even as his health declined. He had a passion for ministry and for God’s people. Even before he had become a pastor, he spent much time in Mexico and Costa Rica, preaching God’s word. His weekly television and radio programs also ministered to God’s people for many years. As a father and husband, Pastor Zuniga provided for his family with love and care, giving us an excellent example of responsibility, attention to detail, and faith. He enjoyed traveling and riding his motorcycle until his health prevented him from continuing to do so. He will be missed dearly but we are comforted by knowing that we will see him again in heaven.
