Rodney Hogue has been in full time ministry since 1977. He pastored for more than 32 years on the west coast in Washington state and California, the last 23 years of which were served at Community of Grace in Hayward, California.

Rodney and his wife, Mary, began ministering deliverance and healing in the 1980’s in response to the needs they witnessed within their own congregations. His passion is to equip believers to minister in power for healing, deliverance, and to see the restoration of lives in order to fulfill their destiny.

Rodney currently ministers itinerantly, equipping believers nationally and internationally to walk out their identity, expanding God’s Kingdom as they demonstrate the Kingdom of God with power. He and Mary currently reside near Abilene, Texas. 

 Jay Baylor has ministered for over 20 years in a variety of ministries and churches: as a Young Area Director, Youth and Young Adult Pastor and Associate Pastor.  Jay has been an instructor in the Global School of Supernatural Ministry and the Christian Healing Certification Program. In 2014 Jay was ordained a priest in the Anglican Church of North America and he began planting Church of the Apostles in the City in East Baltimore with Co-Pastor Carletta Wright.

Apostles in the City is a multi-ethnic church family, uniting in worship, erasing lines of separation, encountering the love of the Father, and serving on mission in the power of the Holy Spirit.  They share life together and reach out to the poor, addicts, homeless, and marginalized in Baltimore. Healings, miracles and deliverance are a regular part of our life together as a church community.

 Janet Richards began ministering in mental institutions, rest homes, and along the highways and byways as a young teenager working with her first powerful woman mentor. It wasn't long before another committed woman mentor and pastor began training Janet in deliverance and healing prayer, helping her learn to walk in the authority of the Believer, using the bountiful ministry gifts God had given her.  
 

Today Janet, following in the footsteps of the passionate women leaders she has known and who have discipled her, pastors Downtown Bethel in Parkersburg, WV. In that venue she and her husband, Tracy, work with the homeless and the broken.
