Jose Luis Palacios was born in Spain, studied at the University of Idaho and played tennis there. He graduated and started working in corporate America. He was posted to Saltillo, Mexico, the "Detroit" of Mexico. There he met and reached out to his future wife, Rosario Padilla. He brought her to the nearest church 90 minutes away in Monterrey, Mexico. He began meeting with his small group on Wednesdays and after a few years helped form a team from Monterrey that supplemented the growing group of disciples in Saltillo. When he left after ten years, the church was at 30 members. The church is still there and Jose Luis continues to support his "organic" church planting through his tithing. Find out how they did it in this episode of the Rob Skinner Podcast!
