Teen Challenge a leader exposed

Many of the leaders in Teen Challenge have made major mistakes that hurt many people. One Leader's name is Angel Rosa.

Angel Rosa was the Executive Director of the Phoenix Arizona Teen Challenge Center, Angel also had built a Church from the ground up he would berate the staff saying if they did not tithe that he would fire them.

Pastor Angel Rosa where is he today? Last I heard he was working in a department store. You see Angel left his wife, his kids, his ministry, his church, for Drugs and a much younger girl and I mean girl not woman a young girl.

Many of the staff were using drugs at that center for their sake i will omit their names, but it all boils down to leadership. If the Leadership is corrupt then the whole organization suffers and the ones that suffer the most are those that were in the program when this tragedy took place.

On Angels behalf I will say that I never had a problem with Angel I liked Angel thought he was a great guy. I was crushed when I heard of his poor choices, I hope Angel is doing good living good anyway he wants.

When you chose leadership you deserve to be exposed for the fraud and brought into the light to be seen by all. Teen Challenge is trusted by many people and when that trust is violated it must be exposed.

We knew Angel and his wife, Laurie. Tragic to see this happen. Very sad day. Is he now running a church in Glendale, Az.

Pastor Rosa was one of the greatest men I've ever met. He married my beloved husband and I in 2005. My children were dedicated to the Lord by Pastor Rosa. There was rumor that he fell from grace many years ago. Since then I've also heard that he is teaching the word of God again. Given his testimony, I would still say he mostly did the right thing. And that's what matters most. Not what he did wrong but what he did right. I'm not sure where I would be now if it were not for Pastor Rosa. He gets 3 gems on his crown for my family alone. May God bless him wherever he may be and shine his countenance on him.
