Zully Ruano was exposed to missions from a very young age and at the age of 16, the Lord inscribed on her heart 2 Corinthians 5:15, “And He died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for Him who died for them and rose again.”  From that point on, her desire was to live for the Lord in the best capacity He saw fit.  The Lord led her to become an elementary school teacher in 2001 and she received her Teaching Credential and a degree in School Administration with the purpose of using it all on the mission field.  Zully eventually resigned from teaching to follow the Lord’s leading into full-time ministry.  She worked on staff at CC Downey where she served as the Missions Coordinator for almost 10 years. She loved being involved in all the “behind the scenes” work in missions; from missionary care to short-term missions training and leadership training.  In God’s perfect timing, Zully received a special missionary call to help begin a Christian international school in Mallorca, Spain. There are presently 1.3% Evangelical Christians in all of Spain, therefore, the school’s purpose is not only to prepare children academically but to reach children and their families with the gospel of Jesus Christ. In addition to establishing a Christian school, Zully’s long term goal is to strategically use Spain’s geographical location to prepare and send missionaries to its neighboring countries in Africa, Europe, and the Middle East.
