“I never thought I would have to do this, but between sobs I share that today our beloved brother Julio Melgar went home with our Heavenly Father. It breaks my heart to know the huge hole his departure leaves in our generation. He was a powerful prophet, loving pastor, tireless worshipper, unwavering faith, good friend, and above all a beloved son of God, he taught those of us who had the privilege of knowing him in this earthly life so much. I look forward to the day we worship together again in Heaven. And what an honor to be called home to heaven on the very day that His death on the cross is commemorated for all of us. Julito, see you later good friend. Sing and dance with the Father. You already won. We will always love you. – Let us lift Julio’s family in prayer in this difficult time”, Christine D’Clario.
