Christian Córdova Riera was born in Quito, Ecuador, and immigrated to the United States when he was 7 with his mother and older sister. He came to California and studied elementary school in San Francisco and in Oakland, California, and then moved with his family to Piedmont, California.  Growing up, he was heavily involved in sports, music, and with the Boy Scouts of America. After being introduced to the message, Christian gave his life to Jesus.  He was baptized into the Seventh-day Adventist Church when he was 14. He quickly became heavily involved with the church youth group and eventually became a Master Guide and Assistant Director at the Oakland Spanish SDA Pathfinder Club.

Education is the key to opportunity, opportunity is the doorway to success. Success is what God gives you after you have done your part and all that you can do today.
