Colleen Wheeler, Evangelist
      Founder/President
THE BEGINNING - Colleen Wheeler was radically saved in 1994 in one of the darkest places of Cape Cod Ma, after having an open eye vision of a cross overlaying the moon. Immediately, the Lord transported her to NYC, 45 minutes away from where she was born and raised. She sought the gifts of the Holy Spirit and was led to a Long Island church where there was an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. It was not long before the Lord called her into the ministry as His evangelist.

The ministry was birthed in summer of 1996, in Flushing Meadow Park after eight months of on site prayer. After the Lord gave the command to "Go." She obeyed and literally 100’s of people prayed to receive Jesus! The following winter during a prayer meeting, the Lord inspired a Scripture verse, "The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest." Luke 10:2 (NASB), which gave the title for the ministry.

EQUIPPING - Desiring to see the church reach its outreach and discipleship potential, at times. Colleen has spent months and sometimes up to a year accomplishing this task. She works with large, small and new church plants, training pastors and raising up leaders, releasing them to oversee various evangelistic, discipleship and follow up ministries. Breaking new ground wherever the Lord sends her, gaining favor with town authorities; doors burst open to minister the gospel creatively as the Lord leads her.

EVANGELISM - Functioning as an itinerant minister; Colleen preaches, teaches, conducts evangelistic services, and trail blazes street, park and church outreaches. She colabors with pastors, leaders, and ministries to accomplish the prophetic vision the Lord gives her. She trains multi-cultural, multiracial churches of various denominations from all over the US and leads them into the harvest field: door-to-door evangelism, street tract attacks, flea markets, restaurants, parks, the projects, subway stations, feeding the hungry and giving away free clothes. Also, pitches a tent anywhere she can, in front of a church, in the middle of town, or parks; a tent was set up in Union Square Park in NYC during 9/11, Boardwalk in Coney Island on Memorial Day, and in various parks to reach the masses.

MISSIONS - Having a heart to reach the nations. Colleen evangelized in Spain to North African Muslims and connected those who received Christ to churches there. Campus Crusade for Christ flew her to their Orlando Headquarters and trained her to train Pastors and leaders for short-term missions. Currently she is forming relationships with a Bishop in Kenya and Pastors in Philippines for future crusades.

EDUCATION - She graduated from Bethel Bible Institute in NY with a Bachelors Degree in Biblical Studies where she also taught Life Experience Evangelistic Courses and took her students to the streets for their final exams. She received a certificate from Billy Graham's School of Evangelism, graduated from Frances Frangipane's "In Christ's Image" school. She continues her Masters in Biblical Studies at "Wagner Leadership Institute" in CT.

TENETS OF FAITH
WE BELIEVE in one sovereign God eternally existing in the three persons: the Father, His Son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, the giver of life.

WE BELIEVE that God has revealed Himself in the Scriptures and supremely in Jesus Christ. The Scriptures are inspired by God and inerrant in the original writing, so that they are fully trustworthy and of supreme and final authority in all they say.

WE BELIEVE that Jesus Christ was begotten by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, and was true God and true man, existing in one person and without sin; and we believe in the resurrection of the crucified body of our Lord, and in His ascension into heaven.

WE BELIEVE that God created Adam and Eve and they were created in His own image. They sinned by rebelling against God's revealed will thereby incurred both physical and spiritual death, and that as a result all human beings are born with a sinful nature that leads them to sin in thought, word, and deed.

WE BELIEVE in the existence of Satan, sin and evil powers, and that all these have been defeated by God in the cross of Christ.

WE BELIEVE that the Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins, as a substitution sacrifice, triumphing over all evil; and that all who believe in Him are justified by His shed blood and forgiven of sin.

WE BELIEVE all who receive the Lord Jesus Christ by faith are born again of the Holy Spirit, thereby become children of God. We believe the Holy Spirit imparts understanding of the Scriptures and empowers believers for godly living and service.

WE BELIEVE in the baptism of the Holy Spirit. He imparts gifts to every believer as He wills for the service of His church.

WE BELIEVE the one, holy, universal Church is the body of Christ's people. The task and obligation of Christ's people in this world is to be witnesses of the Lord Jesus Christ and to seek the salvation of others.

WE BELIEVE Jesus Christ will soon return to this earth, personally, and visibly, the bodily resurrection of the just and the unjust, the everlasting punishment of the lost, and the everlasting life of the saved.
