The Spirit of God birthed FTHGM during the beginning of 2005.
Over the years we have been involved in ministry in countries
behind what used to be called the Iron Curtain. God in the mid 1970’s
direct us to introduce our good friends Bud and Joyce McLean, to the
ministry work behind the Iron Curtain. Bud has traveled extensively since
1975, helping the persecuted churches in countries like: Hungary, Romania,
Albania, the former Yugoslavia and Kosovo, etcetera.
Martha
and I pastored in 5 Churches in Canada though out the years. Two of these
churches were in Saskatchewan, two in British Columbia and one in Ontario.
For the
last 6 years we have been involved in full time African ministry, worked
with orphans during the first 4½ years as volunteers, and this past year the
Lord expanded us into evangelism, helping the poor, orphans and widows in
the countries of Malawi and Mozambique. We are now involved in evangelism
and itinerate ministry in Africa and Canada and have plans to broaden our
base here in Canada, ministry in Europe as well as Africa. On our last trip
to Hungary in April 2006, the Lord of Glory surprised us by speaking to me
(Desi) very specifically about building a home base here in Canada.
We have been fasting and
praying into that even as I am writing this. We are also praying for God’s
perfect timing for us to be back in Africa as well.
We believe that God has called us to: Heal the sick, raise the dead and
preach the gospel of His Kingdom, and be an example to the world as to the
trueness of Christ being made manifest in us through the power of God!
