OUR STORY

In the midst of the terrible World War II, La Voz de la Profecía emerged in Habana, Cuba which later became known as La Voz de la Esperanza. It's principle mission was to reach out to all of the Spanish speaking population through means of radio. From that same start, the radio program LA VOZ had tremendous success which has continued throughout the years.

La Voz de la Esperanza's mission which is sponsored by the Seventh-Day Adventist church at an international level, has illustrated God as the only means to hope and salvation. Thanks to the priceless support from all our donors, and through the power of Jesus Christ, La Voz de la Esperanza has planted, all dimensions of God's message with a message of assurance, peace, and love.
