Orlando founded Pneuma Ministries in 2023 to help young men tyring to start their lives after growing up in Boliva’s orphanage system
Hello, my name is Orlando Ramirez, I was born and raised in Cochabamba – Bolivia. A missionary couple took me in when I was only 13 months old and they raised me like their own child. I graduated from high school and went to bible school for one year. At that time something related to construction seemed like a good idea so I went to university and studied Civil engineering for two years, but God had different plans for me. I ended up finishing with a degree in psychology specializing in crisis management. I’m able to help people with depression and anxiety, in all their forms. I was always involved with the church in leadership - worship, youth, and Sunday school. Through all of this God gave me a heart for people who are desperate, especially orphans. Along my journey as a therapist, I was able to volunteer and work with at risk people who desperately need stability and hope. I felt God’s leading to start Pneuma Ministries, along with a board of directors, because we believe Jesus gives us a new breath for a new life.
