Kristina Hass of El Paso, Texas transitioned from her earthly life into eternal life in the early morning of Sunday, December 28th, 2025. She fought as hard as she could to stay on this earth, but had many physical issues and her heart gave out. She was loved by everyone, and taught people to love. She loved to teach children the bible using various projects and activities. She loved to do the Hebraic Jewish dances and to teach them to others. She praised and worshipped with all her heart because she loved God and wanted to be in His presence. She would go to sleep to Youtube worship and bible teaching videos. Even in the hospital, she would look for the Daystar Christian channel.

She was born Kristina Ybarra on May 31st, 1951 in El Paso. From the time she was a child, she was on the move.  She was a member of the band in Jefferson High School playing the clarinet.  She got saved and came into the Kingdom of God in the early 70s. She later ended up being a great help to Messianic Rabbi Shmuel Oppenheim as he established a Messianic ministry called Ben David in El Paso. She was so funny and adorable. She had a real servant’s heart and was always helpful. She was always so sweet with a Godly attitude and spirit. She loved the Lord. She did work as a medical assistant for a living. Later, at the age of 48, she married her husband Elliot Hass. She impacted every person she met. Later, in 2005, she became a rebbetzin as her husband became a Messianic rabbi. She will be greatly missed by her husband Elliot Hass and her remaining sister Maria T. Avina, and her two brothers Pedro Amador and Bobby Amador.
