Y.P.W.W: stands for "Young People Willing Workers". This auxilary focused mainly on ministering to the youth of today. Although it focuses on the young people, there are still classes comprised of various age groups over 20 yrs. for expounding on the word of God and having something for Everyone to be apart of. (President: Minister Neal Harris)

Shekinah Kids: Our pastor, John Harris saw a need for the youth to be apart of worship, and “Shekinah Kids” was formed. “Shekinah” - referring to the Hebrew word for the Glory of God. What a wonderful way for God’s glory to be revealed through the children!
The “Shekinah Kids” Group utilizes the art of mime and body movement as an expression of worship.
Home & Foreign Mission: The Home and Foreign Mission is designed to educate and instruct men, women, and children in the word of God. It is healing ministry for those that are sick and in the hospital and who are not able to do for themselves. It is an “Out Reach” ministry whose missions expand both at home and abroad. Learning and teaching the word of God is the true foundation of spiritual and natural growth through faith.
