Our Founders
The story of Child & Church Partners began long before it was officially founded.
Dani and Rez Sindac
Born and raised in the Philippines, Dani and Rez Sindac have dedicated their lives to serving children and churches. They have served as church planters, pastors, and worship leaders in the Philippines, Arizona, and Texas.
Their journey has taken them from the villages of the Philippines to the cities of America, but their heart has always remained with the people they left behind.
Through Child & Church Partners, they continue to walk alongside pastors in the Philippines—encouraging, equipping, and supporting them as they raise next-generation leaders, share Christ's love with children and families, and transform lives for God's glory.
Our Journey
Received Jesus as Lord and Savior
Dani and Rez, at separate times, received Jesus as their personal Lord and Savior. They became friends and served together at their first church, Church On The Rock in Quezon City, Philippines, under the leadership of Norman and Anne LaBarre, missionaries and church planters from Church On The Rock in Rockwall, TX.
Valley Cathedral Philippines Founded
The Valley Cathedral Philippines was founded by Zelma Houser, laying the groundwork for future ministry.
Ministry Begins
Dani and Rez became involved with The Valley Cathedral Philippines, beginning their journey of service.
Seminary Training
The Valley Cathedral Phoenix recognized Dani and Rez's calling and sent them to study at a theological seminary in Cleveland, Tennessee.
Coming to America
Dani came to America with one suitcase, $500 in his pocket, and a dream — to start a Filipino church in Arizona. Rez followed with their four young children.
Church Plant in Texas
After nine years in Arizona, Dani and Rez moved to Austin, Texas, where they planted another church.
Child & Church Partners Founded
Dani and Rez registered Child & Church Partners International with the Office of the Secretary of State in Austin, Texas.
Continuing the Mission
Through Child & Church Partners, Dani and Rez continue to walk alongside pastors in the Philippines—encouraging, equipping, and supporting them.
“When we invest in the physical and spiritual needs of children today, and when we equip grassroots churches, we are strengthening families and the future of our nation.”
