My gratitude

I can not express my gratitude enough to all those who have encouraged me to establish that which you will find in his Web. But this is not something that one wakes up to one morning and decides to begin or develop. It was not my intention to develop a network because of a lack of associations or denominational structures, remember there is only One Body. It is not because someone encouraged me to put down on paper my thoughts of how and what a network is or consist of. There are many wonderful and well-established organisations that I would only be too pleased to submit under and help to develop.

But God over the years, to my surprise, has led me in a direction to help develop others in their quest to fulfil the dream that God has placed within their hearts. This began to materialise in the late 1980s, although at the time, I did not know that the word Apostle or Apostolic existed. We were always encouraged by the Pastoral gift, with the occasional glimpse of perhaps that evading evangelist. But at the beginning of the 1990s God began to speak to me through men of God with Words of direction and encouragement that God was raising me up in the Apostolic/Prophetic/Teaching ministry. This was apparent as time went on for I found that different ministries were coming to me for prayer, impartation, anointing and ordination.

This has now developed into the establishing of a Network (CFE) with Churches and Ministries in Association and Affiliations from around the world. I pray as you read this website that you will find that the Holy Spirit will impart to you the vision of Networking, and then together we can work for the glory of His Kingdom.

Let´s raise the standard together.
