Axel Orellana

Pastor Axel Carlos Orellana Castro has been serving as the Assistant Director of the Multilingual Ministry for the North American Division since 2022. In this vital role, he assists the Vice President for Multilingual Ministries and supports the diverse language ministries that reach many cultural communities across our territory.

Pastor Orellana Castro also manages Esperanza TV, our Hispanic Adventist channel for North America, where he oversees programming that brings hope and the Gospel message to Spanish-speaking viewers throughout the region and across social media platforms.

His background as a Chilean-born minister who spent his childhood and adolescence in Brazil before beginning his pastoral service in Chile, combined with his experience as a media and

musical producer and composer for 27 years, has uniquely equipped him for this important work of connecting diverse communities with Christ's message. His leadership at Esperanza TV has been instrumental in expanding our media outreach to Hispanic communities across North America.
