LIMBS TEAM

Jonathan Román
Executive Director
Jonathan attended UTEP for his Undergraduate Degree, during which time he volunteered with the Baptist Student Ministry and led ministries for college students for 5 years. While at UTEP, he also did missionary work in both East Asia and South America, supporting the outreach efforts of local ministries.  Feeling the calling to continue serving his community, he pursued his master's degree in Theological Studies from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas. Jonathan has been in ministry since 2010 and has simultaneously built a background in Information Technology. He has worked in both corporate and educational settings. In 2020, Jonathan and his family moved back to El Paso, where he serves the community as the Associate Pastor of Scotsdale Baptist Church.
