"Before I formed thee in the belly, I knew thee; and before thou
camest forward out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a
prophet unto the nations. Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, I
cannot speak: for I am a child." Jeremiah 1:5-6 |

The Holy Spirit leads Pastor Jackson and he allows God to be the architect of his challenges and the outcome is always moving.
He says it is amazing what we can do when we don't care who gets the credit, for ultimately all glory belongs to God.

Under his leadership we have been blessed and we believe that God will honor his word in our lives as long as we MOVE WITH THE CLOUDS.
