Loris A. Ruiz Ramos
CEO, Mekadesh Publishing, LLC
Loris A. Ruiz Ramos was born in New York City and raised in Puerto Rico. She is the daughter of Elfren and María, both Puerto Ricans, and the oldest of four siblings. From an early age, she felt God's calling: she met the Lord at age 9, but it wasn't until she was 25 that she began to walk firmly in His ways.
In a vision, the Lord showed her that He wanted her at His feet, singing for Him. Since then, she has dedicated her voice to serving the Kingdom. In addition to singing for God, Loris is a preacher of His Word and a teacher committed to teaching the Scriptures with fidelity and passion. Her pastoral ministry focuses on building, caring for, and guiding God's people.
After retiring from the federal government, God sent her and her husband to Ocala, Florida, with the mission of carrying out work for the Lord. There she continues to serve with dedication and obedience. She is happily married to Oswaldo Heredia, with whom she served as associate pastor in Virginia. She is the mother of three children (two sons and a daughter) and lives an active faith centered on Christ.
Currently, Loris is president of Messengers of His Living Word, Inc., and serves as CEO and co-founder of Mekadesh Publishing, LLC, where she promotes Christ-exalting projects that bring life through the written Word.
