Today was one to remember. Apostle Claude Mitchell the founder of the church came through to bless the house of God today with a fresh word. He birthed me in ministry and handed me the keys in December of 2000. After 20 years, I passed the mantle along to Prophet Charles Harris Jr. to continue the work in March 2020. This is 27 years strong right here standing together as one. The 30 year Anniversary is right around the corner!!
