His academic and professional achievements filled him with pride and self-righteousness, but God had a breaking point prepared for him. In 2012, thanks to the invitation of some friends to "La Casa del Juicio", he was confronted by the reality of a God of love and justice, whose standard of righteousness was so high that there was nothing he could do to earn access to heaven. That day he accepted Jesus into his heart and began on a journey to better understand his new faith.

While attending another church, he met up with Diana, a former classmate from school with whom he developed a very strong friendship. They began to attend Vida Nueva in 2017 with the idea of growing in faith and being part of a caring community.  

Miguel and Diana got married in 2020. Over the years they have served as a couple in children's ministries, evangelism, discipleship, and much more. They are also a registered as a foster family to give children at risk all the love and protection that a Christian family has to offer.

Miguel began working at Vida Nueva on April 1st, 2022. He oversees evangelism, with a focus on better developing the internal culture of evangelism, and on executing more initiatives to present the gospel to non-believers so they can establish a genuine relationship with Jesus and become part of Vida Nueva.
