MEET THE BAND!

Ray Montoya

The best things in life are free! God demonstrated that by giving us the free gift of salvation through His Son Jesus Christ.

I have been playing guitar and singing since high school. I was not doing it for the Lord back then, and I had to be half drunk and or high on pot to get up in front of people to do it. When I was a senior in high school, I was invited to a Christian rock concert. To make it short, I surrendered my life to Jesus that night. Now I use my musical talents to serve the Lord!

I have been a worship leader at several churches and bands and now with PS One 50. We play wherever God calls; including camps, revivals and prisons. I love God, my family, old hot rods and old VWs, water sports, and MUSIC! Now, years later, God has allowed me to be called a pastor with Conviction for Christ Ministries. Praise on!

Blessings and love,
Pastor Ray Ray

What do I want to say about myself? Rather, what about me would you want to donate your time to read? If you’ve read this far I consider it an honor and pledge not to waste your time. So, as not to belabor the point I’ll hike up my jeans and jump right in.

I’ve made mistakes, I’ve downright turned my back on my Lord and Savior, and I’ve learned most things the hard way, preferring to chart a long and winding path rather than the straight and narrow. Yet God’s grace and mercy has wrapped me in a comfortable embrace and though struggles there still may be, He is always there with me. I’m blessed with an amazing wife, without whose influence I may have never picked up my guitar again, and two beautiful little girls.

I’ve had music in my head since I can remember, but struggled to apply it from an early age. I got my start with the guitar at the age of 15 or 16 with a nearly impossible to play red Kramer Stratocaster copy whose action was higher than any guitar I remember ever playing (of course this may have to do with the fact that I wasn’t fully grown yet). I threw myself into trying to express and explore the music that was in me during high school and assembled a few different bands of kids together just out of the fun of music and later with the "Rock Star" dream that every teenage boy has at one time or another. However, by the age of 22, I had virtually given up the serious exploration of music.

In 2006 God brought me to a place where I could reconnect with musicians and with the encouragement of my wife I began to embrace music and the gift that God had given me. I’ve played in my Church’s worship band for about two years and now with PSone50—I’ve never been more excited to exercise God’s gift to me, I want to use every opportunity that He gives me to present my gift back to Him and continue to let Him change my life.

Music has always been my biggest interest, and my undergraduate work is in Criminal Justice; now with PSone50 I’ve got the opportunity to use music to influence a system that I’ve mostly just written papers about. I truly have a heart for bringing comfort to those who are in our Prison system and giving them not only a connection to a spiritual outlet but also to a community that is waiting outside the walls of their prison to embrace and encourage them.

I love Jesus, my family and friends, I like music, playing guitar, playing Bass, old VW's and skateboarding, surfing when I can and long walks on the beach! I also like off roading, motorcycles and other fast stuff and slow stuff and, and.....
