Donnie
Herrera
Associate Pastor
​
​
Pastor Donnie Herrera earned his degree in civil engineering from the University of Texas at Austin, managing his own structural engineering firm for many years. At the same time, Donnie’s love for music led him to become a professional singer and musician, performing for many years across the state of Texas. Even then, Pastor Donnie knew that the hand of God was on his life in a very special way.
​
​
At the age of 18, Pastor Donnie received Christ as his Savior at a movie theatre after watching a Christian film produced by Billy Graham Ministries. Immediately he began to study God’s Word with a passion never imagining what God was preparing him for. Pastor Donnie Herrera became an ordained minister of the gospel and helped establish Compassion Church in San Antonio, Texas. He still enjoys being a part of the building of structures, but he is even more passionate in helping build the Kingdom of God. Pastor Donnie Herrera is not only a master teacher of the Bible, focusing on God’s grace, but he is also a lover of people. From the moment you meet Pastor Donnie you can feel the love, grace and compassion of Christ.

Compassion Church is all about family! From the moment you enter the building, the love and compassion of Jesus Christ is evident. We believe Jesus was born of a virgin, died for our sins, rose from the grave, and is coming again soon. We believe in the healing power of God and truth of His word.
Here, His PRESENCE is felt, His LOVE is shared, and His WORD is spread to all the world.
Compassion = Love In Action

Loving God. Loving People. Making Disciples.
