Even though growing up in poverty and frequently confronted with racism and discrimination, God continues to use his experiences and triumphs over these situations to empower and equip others to forgive and fulfill their divine-ordained purpose in their lives through “faith” and “trust” in God.
Pastor Pearsall believes in the transformative power of the Holy Spirit and with God's anointing and prophetic administration on his life he ministers to everyone who will listen to him the fullness of the Holy Spirit's power through redemption, restoration, revelation and demonstration.
His ministry’s primary mission is: to reach and influence people of all walks of life to be strengthened with might by the Spirit in the inner man, thereby, making disciples of all nations with the life-giving message of Jesus Christ. (Ephesians 3:14-16)
Pastor Pearsall’s faith and God-inspired messages of hope “Something Big is Going to Happen” and “Heaven and Earth is Voice Activated” has inspired many.
PASTOR CHARLENE PEARSALL
Pastor
Pastor Charlene K. Pearsall is a native of Washington, DC, born to the late Elder Charles & Mother Edna Bellinger, Sr., and the beloved wife of Pastor David L. Pearsall, Sr., and the proud mother of Miracle Faith Pearsall.
Pastor Charlene accepted the Lord at an early age, was baptized and filled with the Holy Ghost, and faithfully served in ministry for many years at the Highway Christian Church of Christ, in Washington, DC, under the administration of Bishop and Lady Herman Ginwright. Following her marriage to Elder Pearsall, she became a member of the Greater Tyson Temple Church, and remained dedicated in service to the late Bishop James E. Steadman and devotedly served Lady Beverly T. Steadman. By the leading of the Holy Spirit, she and her family then served in ministry with Pastor Dwayne Brewington and the Victory Christian Church International, in Gaithersburg, Maryland, until God released her husband to pastor. She currently pastors alongside her husband at the Church of God Inner Man Gospel, Inc. in Frederick, Maryland.
The Lord blessed her to become a full-time stay at home mother to rear, nurture and care for their beautiful baby girl, Miracle. During this time, she was able to minister unrestrained to countless women and teen girls and thereafter answered and accepted the call of God to start “All For Sisters’ Women’s Ministry”, founded in May of 2011. The primary goal of this ministry is to help with the development of women and teen girls’ sense of personal worth, security, and significance in the home, church, community, and workplace, regardless of their origin, skin color, creed, or status in life. The Lord has given her an authentic passion for women and teen girls and she enjoys serving them in whatever capacity she’s called upon to do so.
Pastor Charlene also humbly serves as a help-mate and co-host to her husband on “R.E.E.L. Talk Conference Call”, a ministry that is intended to “Reach Every Ethnicity Living” to share the good news of Jesus Christ beyond the four walls of church buildings.
She strives to be an example of a “virtuous woman” -- a woman who is yielded to God in every area of her life. She continues to aim toward and produce excellence in all of her ministry opportunities, to include the writing of a book entitled, “When a Good Thing Turns Out to Be Bad”, which is available now by clicking here.
She has a heart for people and is fully sold out and committed first to God, then her family, and finally ministry. Her life scripture is James 5:16, “…The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much”.
