Maria Vadia
Born in Havana, Cuba, Maria was 10 years old when she and her family fled to Miami,
Florida to escape the communist regime in her native country. She attended
Catholic schools and was a “Sunday” Catholic with no personal relationship with
the Lord Jesus Christ. Later married to a wealthy man, she was gripped by
materialism; yet in the midst of everything the world could offer, she knew that
something was missing.
Maria was baptized in the Holy Spirit in 1987 and consecrated
her life to the Lord Jesus Christ and to the preaching of the Gospel. In spite
of great adversity, the Lord has been with her like a “mighty warrior” (Jeremiah
20:11).
Maria is active in the Catholic Charismatic Renewal of the
Archdiocese of Miami and has spoken at many charismatic conferences. She is
founder of the “Jesus is Lord” chapter of Magnificat in Miami, and a member of
the Advisory Board of Magnificat, International, a ministry for Catholic Women.
She has traveled around America, Cuba, Trinidad & Tobago, Barbados, Jamaica,
Mexico, Malta, Ghana, Nicaragua, Uganda, Indonesia, Canada and India bringing a
message of faith, salvation and healing. She ministers the Word to various
prayer groups, including “The King Jesus Prayer Group” which she has faithfully
led since 1992, as well as at the Miami Women’s Detention Center and Genesis
House, a home for the homeless with AIDS (presently closed). She has authored
five books; “There is Power In Your Tongue,” “Pressing On In The Spirit,” “An Arrow In His Hand,”
"Healing is for
You," and "Break
Open Your Wells." Maria is the mother of four: Ricky, Victor, Eddy and Rosario.
