Our History
A Story of
FAITH
CDO Ebenezer Ministries was born from a deep calling to serve the Hispanic community in southeast Alabama. What began as a small prayer group in the home of Pastors Joe and Maribel Rosado has grown into a vibrant community of families seeking God together.
From our humble beginnings, we have seen God's hand guiding and providing at every step. We have witnessed restored marriages, reunified families, and lives transformed by the power of the gospel.
The name "Ebenezer" comes from 1 Samuel 7:12, where Samuel raised a stone and called it "Ebenezer," saying: "Until here the Lord has helped us." This name constantly reminds us of God's faithfulness in our history and gives us confidence for the future.
Our
MISSION
Just as the Lord did with the people of Israel in Mizpah, we are committed to reunifying families, restoring them, and building them up to live in holiness for the honor and glory of God.
Our
VISION
"To reach, restore, and build families for the glory of God."
"And Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen. He named it Ebenezer, saying, 'Until here the Lord has helped us.'"— 1 Samuel 7:12
