Pastor Testimony:
Pastor Kenneth Jenkins is married and has two daughters and one son (Jennifer, Nancy, and Bryan). He has been married for 26 years now. He was called into ministry when he was 18 through a prophecy. He didn’t care then, and again, ten years later, it was prophesied again that he was to serve in ministry. He still didn’t care, but he was different the third time he received the call to serve in ministry. Sometime later, while he was serving as the youth pastor, the lead pastor got sick, and he was told he would be the Pastor of this church. He then realized the prophecies were true and that it was a serious call. He accepted. It’s been difficult for his children because they are now the “Pastor’s children,” but their family has become stronger because of it. He has been in the church he now pastors since he can remember. He was saved there, it is the church his parents raised him in, and this is the church that he knows best. He has served this church for over 27 years, 12 years as the lead Pastor.
