Meet Our Lead Church Planters
Kenny and Malaina Ortiz, along with their two young kids, moved from Minnesota to Florida in June 2023 to launch Horizon City.
Kenny was a pastor at Cities Church and professor at Bethlehem College & Seminary. He’s also a blogger and podcaster at Theology for the Rest of Us. Malaina was previously a missionary to France and then worked as a college recruiter for several years.
Kenny has been dreaming of church planting since his college days, more than 20 years ago, and Malaina has become his biggest supporter. They are currently recruiting a launch team to be a part of this church plant.
Mission
To make disciples who treasure Christ.

Vision
Our dream is for Horizon City Church to be a community of Christians in Central Florida who:
- Possess a steadfast happiness inspired by the grandeur of God;
- Obey the commands of Christ without reservation;
- Practice radical hospitality;
- Consistently apply the wisdom of God to every sphere of life;
- Fiercely commit to kingdom multiplication through church planting and global missions.
Core Values
We gather often.
We make much of teaching.
We show others the way.
“God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him.”
—John Piper
DISTINCTIVES
