ABOUT STRENGTH MINISTRIES
Who We Are
Strength Ministries is a vibrant community of believers dedicated to spreading the love of Jesus Christ and making a positive impact in the world. Strength was established as a continuation of the legacy of Bishop Donnie McLeod and Eldress Blanche McLeod, whose lives were devoted to spreading the Gospel and building strong foundations of faith. We carry that mantle forward, committed to strengthening lives, building faith, and impacting our community through the power of God.
Strength Ministries is a place where individuals and families can grow in faith, experience God's presence, and be empowered to live transformed lives.
Our Mission
To spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ, cultivate authentic worship, and build a strong, faith-centered community rooted in biblical truth through discipleship, spiritual growth, and outreach.
What We Believe
We believe that there is One God, the Creator, infinite and eternally existing in three manifestations, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Jesus is the Son of God according to the flesh (Romans 1:3) and very much so God Himself according to the Spirit (Matthew 1:23). The Holy Ghost (Holy Spirit) is the Spirit of God, (the Creator), the Spirit of the resurrected Christ. The Holy Ghost comes to dwell in the hearts and lives of everyone who believes and obeys the gospel as the Comforter, Sustainer and Keeper (John 14:16-26; Romans 8:9-11).
Man was created in the image of God, but fell into sin and is therefore lost. Only through faith, accepting Jesus Christ and receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost can we be restored. Jesus brought salvation by the shedding of His blood and resurrection. He provided the only ground for salvation to those who believe by faith and are born again by the Holy Ghost/Holy Spirit.
We believe in the second coming of Jesus Christ. He is coming back to earth in bodily form, just as He went away (Acts 1:11). He will catch away His holy people (His bride, His church) who have accepted redemption through His blood, by birth of the water and of the Spirit and who are found faithful when He comes.
We believe in the Resurrection. There will be a resurrection of the dead, both just and unjust (Acts 24:15). The believer will gain everlasting eternal life in Christ and the unbeliever will gain everlasting judgment and conscious punishment.
Baptism – we are submerged into the water in the name of Jesus Christ according to (Acts 2:38).
Communion – Taking of the Lord’s Supper in a memorial sacred service in the remembrance of the death of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. All true believers should share in it (Luke 22:7-20). We believe in the foot wash according to (John 13:4-8).
