Jimmer Prieto

Jimmer Prieto was born in Colombia. He discovered his calling as a teacher at an early age, opening his first school for friends in his home at the age of 17. He studied Philosophy and worked as a teacher for more than forty years. In 1985, he and his wife experienced a new birth in Jesus Christ, following a healing that forever changed the course of their lives. At the beginning of the 21st century, The Urantia Book came into his hands and illuminated the gaps he had long encountered in Christian churches. It also quenched his spiritual thirst, inspiring him to one day become a teacher of the precious truths of the Fifth Revelation.
Since then, Jimmer has taken many courses and taught others, in addition to giving presentations and leading creative workshops. He has lived in the United States since 1990, where he earned a Master’s degree in Peace Studies and became certified as a K-12 teacher of Spanish and Mathematics. Although he retired eight years ago, he continues to feel called to serve the living gospel for the rest of his days.
