BIOGRAPHY

Pastor Hector Boucet is a man of God characterized by his great love for the souls of the congregation and faith in people. Together with his spouse Miriama Boucet they are the pastors of “The Gathering”. This church opened in January 2014, being the only fully English-speaking one on this side of the island of Puerto Rico.

Pastor Boucet, after being a firm Catholic for more than 50 years, received Jesus as his Lord and Savior in 2007, at the Assembly of God Church, located on the small island of American Samoa. During that service, even though the entire service was in the Samoan language, he was able to witness the touch of the Holy Spirit to the innermost part of his heart, leading him to the altar for this great feast. He decided to join his life with his spouse Miriama Boucet at the end of 2006. Once they return from Samoa to Puerto Rico and settle down, they decide to start attending the Assembly of God of Zion church in Mayagüez. In January 2014 he was invited to the English-speaking church The Gathering by a friend. His “pastoral” heart always led him to be dedicated to the care of the people in the congregation. In 2019 Pastor Boucet and his beloved spouse Miriama Boucet were anointed Co-Pastors by Apostle David and Sheilyn Rusi and it was in 2021 that they were appointed official pastors of The Gathering.

Today they continue to obey God’s voice, and to be guided by God’s will towards new projects, and seeing it as a fertile field to sow the restorative message of the Gospel. In his heart he has the firm conviction that his calling is to win and disciple as many English-speaking souls as possible. He recognizes that God desires all people to hear His word and have the opportunity to be saved. He also firmly believes that in each person there is a leader who can succeed in everything he or she undertakes with God’s guidance and help.
