  • Mozart Porcena

    Mozart Porcena, Head Elder of Plantation SDA church gave his life to Christ at the tender age of 11 years old. Having been born in the SDA church, Mozart began to live out the training and teaching he received as a child, in the light of his decision to have a relationship with Jesus.

    He describes himself as a man who has a love for God, family, service and Pathfinders. Affectionately, known as Mr. Mo by Pathfinders near and far, Mozart has served as head of not only Pathfinders, but Men’s, and Parking Ministries. He has also served as an Elder for a decade.

    He holds a Master of Business Administration and has built a successful career in the Life and Health Insurance industry.

    In his free time, Mozart is a bit of a thrill seeker, his hobbies include jet skiing on a beautiful South Florida day or sky diving from 10,000 feet in the air. One of his favorite scriptures is Romans 8:38-39, “For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
