As the newly appointed leader entrusted with guiding Full Gospel Churches International in Missouri, I want to pause and thank Bro. Nelson, my predecessor who has led with great conviction and integrity. I have known him since my camper days at FGCI’s Camp Moriah. Bro. Nelson loves Jesus and His church and is a constant source of encouragement to ministers across the state. We are blessed to be in relationship with such a man. I am humbled and energized by the opportunity to spearhead our collective journey into the future. I was privileged to begin attending Living Word Ministries (formerly Gateway Temple) and ministering at many Full Gospel Churches through one of its founders Rev. C. L. Morrison 30 years ago. I believe that FGCI’s greatest days are ahead! Together, we stand on the threshold of endless possibilities, driven by our unwavering commitment to the Gospel's incredible transformative power.

In the heartland of America, amidst the rolling hills and bustling cities of Missouri, FGCI has the chance to ignite a revival of faith that reverberates far beyond our borders. Our vision includes yet extends beyond the confines of tradition, embracing innovation and inclusivity as we chart a course towards a brighter tomorrow.

As we embark on this exciting chapter, I’m excited, along with our team, to cultivate a network of ministers where every voice is heard, every heart is valued, and every soul finds solace in the embrace of our shared beliefs. Through collaboration, compassion, and courage, we will navigate the challenges of our time, emerging stronger, larger and more united than ever before.

Together, let us rise to the occasion, daring to dream, daring to believe, and daring to lead with unwavering conviction. Our journey may be filled with twists and turns, but with faith as our compass and love as our guiding light, there is no limit to what we can achieve. Welcome to a new era of Full Gospel Churches International in Missouri, where the best is yet to come.
