The beautiful miles of ministry...
I too have a beginning serving in church and loving every Sunday and those days during the week of church interaction. I too have experienced the humoristic parts of church behind the ministry, fellowshipping together in meetings, and outings. I too have experienced ministry while enduring personalities in ministry, members, and visitors. I too have experienced being tired from trying to do as much as I can in church while trying to do everything at home for my family. I too have experienced making decisions of serving in other areas of the church and being called to serve in other ministries that God was calling me to at that season. I have served in Baptist Church ministry since 1999; exciting story to tell. The bright-eyed innocent days of being a young usher helping to sit anyone who walked through the door while decerning the spirit to ensure all were safe, the astute and juggle of being an assistant servant leader of ministry being stretched in every capacity to keep coherency and ministry order to serve best in that moment, and the graceful giving Deacon aid always showering the ministry with love, and joy and ideas. 2014 I began In The Chair with Joy and Dans Le Chaise avec Joie ministries to help serve in the problem I saw in Christians everywhere in the need to mature in Christianity as a child of God. I began to see God promises in this specific moment and the community God has built through this branch of the body of Christ. God has stamped his approval on birthing and establishing The Olive Branch Tabernacle church.
The responsibility, title, and, anointing of Pastor did not frighten me more than understanding God was giving me the approval to do so. It meant God believed in me to the degree that I can fulfill what he has charged me to do with his help for this body of Christ. The position of this title has no barring's on the confidence I feel about myself as a woman, my help and seemingly power come from God who is my all. God is always the lead, the voice, and decision making of this house. This is the house of God where only God is honored, worshipped and praised.
A 360-degree view of me, everything I know is hands on and God taught me in a span of 3 1/2 decades. But there is always more present and ancient discoveries to learn. I have decided to embark on a formal journey in Seminary. I hold a bachelor's degree in B.A. Communications New Media from Southern New Hampshire University and a M.A. Masters in Cybersecurity from Southern New Hampshire University. I believe in family, integrity, wholistic health, quality fitness, good laughs, and quality conversation.
God is your friend and everything you will ever need throughout life.
Anchored in Christ,
Pastor Bel
