The Ministry
In 1987, while serving in the United States Army, stationed at Fort Hood Texas, Pastor Randy received Jesus Christ as his personal Lord & Savior at the Christian House of Prayer in Copperas Cove Texas, under the leadership of his spiritual Father, Apostle Nathaniel Holcomb. At the same time, he was filled with the Holy Ghost and accepted the call to preach the gospel.
In 1988, Pastor Randy was ordained as an evangelist and traveled abroad and stateside declaring the revelation of Jesus Christ. Every place the Lord led him to minister, people lives were impacted by the simplicity of his teaching.
From 1989 until the birth of Present Truth Prayer Center, Pastor Randy has been making full proof of the ministry in which the Lord called him to. This include: studying, praying, serving, pastoring, preaching, teaching and counseling.

His excitement and enthusiasm for the Lord is certainly exemplified through his lifestyle and in his preaching. Once you hear him preach, one is convinced that he has been in the presence of the Lord. The scripture states in II Timothy 2:15 – “Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of Truth”. It is only the truth of the Word of the living God that will set the captive free. Pastor Randy believes that you can only teach what you know.
