How We Started

 

In 1980 Pastor Harley  felt the call of God to go to Brooklyn, New York. After seeing the tremendous need there, along with the desire of him and his wife Jan to do a work for the Lord, Redemption Ministry began. A church and a drug program was established.

After living in Brooklyn for three years, the call of the Lord led them to India. Once again, their hearts ached as they saw the many needs and the hopelessness of the people around them. . Along with their sons, they lived in India during the year of 1984. Their mission program reaches out evangelizes in many remote villages in South India.

 Over the last 20 years they have established over 250 churches, as well as  Bible schools and several elementary schools. .A Bible school was started and has since trained hundreds of men and women in ministry for the Lord. Just this year the newest Bible School complex trains up to 175 students each year. 

Currently there  are 19 homes for children, built in conjunction with existing churches.  The needs for children in India are of a critical state, with many orphaned or abandoned children have to work in fields or beg on the streets just to have food, and without an education have no hope for a future. 

As the apostolic call on Pastor Harley’s life continued, churches were started in Minneapolis and Duluth, Minnesota. All three of the churches emphasized on evangelism, drug and alcohol rehabilitation, and reaching out to the lost and needy.  Additionally, Pastor Harley  Set up  2 drug and alcohol homes for men, and a coffeehouse ministry to meet the needs of the inner cities. 

Over the years, many lives have been dramatically changed by the power of Jesus Christ ministered through their lives. Lives are forever changed, relationships restored, and now have a hope and a future.
