Stewart and Millie - Congregational Leaders
Stewart and Millie heard God’s call into ministry over 25 years ago. In their journey, The Lord has led them to minister in over 35 nations, with a passion to see people set free from bondage and released into their destiny and calling as lovers of God and His children sent into a fallen world fully equipped! Before arriving in Denver to join the staff of an inner city church and help start a Shabbat Service, they lived in Israel, where they came along side to serve by helping to co-pastor a Hebrew speaking Messianic Jewish congregation in Tel Aviv. They have a heart for the people of God to experience His presence, embrace the Hebraic roots of their faith, and to see all people, Jew and non-Jew come to know the Messiah! (Romans 1:16)
