About Us
Joseph Colini's journey from atheism to becoming Pastor Colini of the Strongsville Christian Church is a remarkable testament to faith, perseverance, and the transformative power of Jesus.
In his early years, Joseph Colini identified as an atheist, and his life seemed to be spiraling into despair, marked by a sense of purposelessness. However, at a particularly dark and desperate moment in his life, he reached out to Jesus. In a moment of profound vulnerability, he cried out to God, questioning His existence and asking for help.
This pivotal moment led Joseph to open the Holy Bible for the first time in his life, and he stumbled upon a story that resonated deeply with his own struggles. It was in this moment of divine revelation that he came to believe in the reality of God. Filled with remorse, Joseph repented for his past sins and wholeheartedly accepted Jesus as his savior and the Lord of his life. He made a lifelong commitment to serve God, setting the course for a remarkable transformation.
Under the guidance of Pastor Carliasto Jones at Circle of Faith ministries, Joseph embarked on a journey of spiritual growth and learning. He dedicated several years to his studies, earning multiple Bible school certificates and obtaining a Licensed Ordination as a Deacon in 2007.
Joseph's path took an unexpected turn when he crossed paths with Ronda Colini, a woman from the Philippines who had patiently waited for him for seven years. Their marriage was a testament to the power of love and faith, as two individuals with limited material resources thrived, driven by their love for each other and their unwavering faith in Jesus.
Joseph's educational achievements continued as he graduated with honors in college and entered the field of medical provision, specializing in the optical industry in 2008. In 2010, he took on the role of Pastor at a modest storefront church in Cleveland, Ohio. Alongside his wife, they not only provided medical services but also ministered the Gospel to their community in Old Brooklyn, Ohio.
Their journey culminated in the establishment of the Strongsville Christian Church, located at 19132 Temple Drive in Strongsville, Ohio. Over the years, they dedicated themselves to various forms of ministry, including prison outreach in Cuyahoga County, state prisons, nursing homes, halfway houses, and mental institutions. Sister Ronda's gift for teaching the Bible shone brightly as she inspired children during Sunday school.
Pastor Colini's dedication and message of faith have even reached the airwaves through his appearances on 95.5 FM The Fish radio and the TCT Ask the Pastor television show, all for the glory of God. Together, Joseph and Ronda Colini share a deep desire to see souls saved, delivered, and set free through their ministry.
Their life story is a living testament to the transformative power of faith and love, demonstrating that, with God's guidance, even the most challenging circumstances can lead to lives dedicated to serving and inspiring others.
