  • The Mita Congregation is a Christian based in Puerto Rico. The congregation has chapters in the United States, Canada, Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, Costa Rica, Mexico,Spain, and in the Dominican Republic. The Congregation is headquartered at its Temple at 203 Duarte Street, Hato Rey, Puerto Rico. The Mita believe that a woman named Mita, born Juanita García Peraza, was the living incarnation of the Holy Spirit. According to their beliefs, the Holy Spirit once acted through Mita and anointed Teófilo Vargas Seín as the first prophet of God in the new era, what they call the era of Mita. Vargas was renamed Aarón, became Mita's heir when she died in 1970, and is today the spiritual and material leader of the congregation. The congregation was formed in Arecibo in 1940, but in 1947 the church was relocated to Hato Rey, San Juan, Puerto Rico. The church was rocked in 2004 when a man named Samuel Beniquez alleged on Puerto Rico's television and newspapers that he was Aaron's son. The charges were never substantiated.
