Alejandro Danilo Leal, better known as Alex, was
born in Quilpué, Chile on November 16, 1974 and
immigrated to the United States a few days before
his second birthday. While visiting his family in
Weehawken, NJ, his paternal grandmother
encouraged his mother to find a good church where
she could raise up her children in the fear and
knowledge of the Lord. Thanks to the evangelistic
outreach of Michael Calabrese, at a nearby park in
Union City, NJ his family wound up attending Bethel Gospel Chapel.
On June 7, 2008 Alex took a leap of faith and began to serve the Lord full
time. He was later commended to the ministry by both Bethel Gospel Chapel
in Union City and Bethany Chapel in Yonkers, NY, where he was also in
fellowship before and during the Pandemic. Around 2020 Alex also
returned to secular employment, following his father’s diagnosis of
Parkinson and Lewy body dementia. Eventually, in August 2020 he moved
to Wilmington, DE, where he is in fellowship at Brandywine Bible Chapel
and maintains an active itinerate speaking ministry both at home and abroad.
