    Cover Boy

    By Jeremy | July 9, 2007

    My partner in the South Bronx a/k/a "Happy Daddy" Dimas Salaberrios is this month's cover boy for Outreach magazine. Even more wonderful for the emerging leaders Dimas has ably represented for the last decade, the article speaks of him as both a protege and peer of one of the great pastors/theologians/urbanists of our time, Dr. Tim Keller. CCDA also gets an appropriate shout-out in the article.
    Although they are different New York City churches with very different audiences, Redeemer Presbyterian and Infinity Church are part of the same multiplication equation with a product of continuous Kingdom growth. ... Church, culture, relevancy and contextualization—Salaberrios and Keller were speaking the same language, even though their target groups were unmistakably different. In 2000, Salaberrios heard Keller speak on church planting at a Christian Community Development Association conference. As Keller shared his desire to plant 100 churches in New York City, Salaberrios became intrigued. The two met, and Salaberrios asked Keller if he was interested in planting a church focused on ministering to young people. Salaberrios knew his background made him relevant to the Bronx’s youth, but forming a spiritual community wouldn’t be possible without training and financial backing—above and beyond what he was receiving as YFC’s New York City director, a position he still holds. Keller said he’d gladly provide for these needs.
