"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith."  2 Timothy 4:7

It is with heavy hearts tjat we announce the passing of our beloved brother in Christ, Bishop Alejandro Galarza. Having fought the good fight, he finished his race with unwavering faith. The Lord called him to his eternal rest on Friday, November 28, 2025. He went peacefully in his home, and was surrounded by his loving family.

A devoted servant of Christ, Bishop Galarza gave countless years of steadfast ministry to the Kingdom of God. The Lord granted him a long fruitful path in his service, pastoring Big Lake Apostolic Church for 36 years in California/ Nevada inner District. Bishop Galarza was preceded in death by his two sons, Alejandro Galarza Jr. and Victor Galarza.

Bishop Galarza's ministry and pastorship touched many lives on various levels and has left a lasting legacy.  To this day, his life and testimony continue to preach the most powerful message of all: FAITHFULLNESS.

We invite the body of Christ to join in prayer for his wife of 65 years, sister Ana Galarza; his daughters Elizabeth Torres and Lorena Quintana: his sons-in-law Mike Torres and Luis Quintana; his grandchildren, and the rest of the family. May the comforting presence of the Holy Spirit come as balm and strengthen and grant them peace in these difficult times. "Well done, good and faithful servant... enter into the joy of your Lord." Matthew 25;21
