At the age of eight, at the church that my mom was a member of, I received Jesus as my Lord and Savior. I began to grow in the Lord and by the time I was ten I was filled with the Holy Ghost and with fire. My mother has always been a great influence in my life as an example of how to live a holy life. As a minister and Co-Pastor at The Center for Christian Unity,I have seen, with the help of others, Gods work being done.Our Vision Working together to fulfill the great commission, with passion and compassion for a dying world." Our vision is to raise people that will affect our city, our state, our nation and our world for God. Is a Ministry of diversity. Our team is made up of multi-cultural and multi-generational people that love GOD. We will do this by making a committed effort to fulfill the great commission, reaching out to the state of Baton Rouge Louisiana, and the United States of America, and the nations of the world. It is our belief that Jesus commissioned the church to do three things. This is our view of the great commission. 1. Evangelism: Jesus said preach the Gospel to every creature. We are called to evangelize the world beginning with our "Jerusalem" - Lima, Ohio. (Reference: Mark 16: 15, 16, Acts 1:8) 2. Discipleship: Jesus commissioned us to make disciples of those who get saved. (Reference: Matthew 28: 18-20, I Timothy 2: 1-4, II Timothy 2: 1,2, Hebrews 5: 11-14, III John 4) 3. The Ministry of Compassion: God commands us to demonstrate His care for the needs of others. We do this by healing the sick and oppressed, and caring for the poor and needy. (Reference: Luke 4: 18, 19, Acts 10: 38, Matthew 10: 5-8, Matthew 25: 31-46, Mark 16: 17, 18, James 5: 13-16, Matthew 22: 35-40)
