Pastor Teresa Howerton
My name is Teresa Howerton. I Pastor Grace Fellowship of Midway in Midway, Kentucky.
In 1978 when I was only 22 years old, Jesus appeared to me in an open vision in my living room. Later the same day the Holy Spirit flooded my kitchen with His tangible presence while I sat at my kitchen table I was surrounded with a bright glistening thick cloud and everything in the room disappeared. I instantly felt what seemed like a thousand pounds leave me at the top of my head. Then God spoke to me and told me to go tell my parents what had just happened to me. I know that sounds wild, but I knew that God was in my kitchen, and He was speaking to me.
I had been reading a book by Billy Graham called “Peace with God”. I knew from the book that I had just been “Born Again.” At that moment I knew God was real, Heaven was real, Hell was real and that I had almost missed Heaven. From that time to now, I have sought the Lord and the fear of the Lord and His presence has been a constant experience for me. I can boldly say that Jesus Christ is my personal Savior. This does not make me perfect, no one is, but I strive to follow the One who is perfect.
He called me into full time ministry in 2006 asking me to give up my personal insurance business that I was in the middle of developing. In 2008, I was ordained under my home church Grace Fellowship of Lexington. The Lord told me that I would have an end time Joseph Ministry and to prepare for that. I have had many challenges, but the goal is the same, to prepare to meet end time difficulties with active faith, through prayer and the manifestation of the power of God in order to fulfill the call of 1 Timothy 4:16 KJV: Take heed unto thyself, and unto the doctrine; continue in them: for in doing this thou shalt both save thyself, and them that hear thee.
I Pastor a praying church with the most wonderful group of Christians who are also dedicated to meeting the spiritual needs of others. We are in the end times like the Bible speaks of and we are preparing to meet our Lord face to face. I know I will see Him again soon. Jeremiah 29:11,12, & 13
