In March 2013, having yield to the Lord’s calling, the ministry was established in Beltsville, Maryland. Evang. Tammy is a licensed practical nurse and has one son. In building her capacity to fulfill her calling, she graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in Biblical Studies in May 2017 from the Lancaster Bible College in Maryland.
The ministry aims to provide hope for the disadvantaged groups who stand in need of spiritual, economic, social, and physical uplifting. Our overall goal is that each underprivileged person we reach becomes a responsible and fulfilled personality. children, women, and the elderly.
