about us

The Ministry was born in 1981 out of a vision given by God to His servant, Archbishop Dr. Joseph A. Alexander. With an initial small gathering of 5 in a family room in 1981, the church moved into its first property on 1497 Needham Road in the Bronx, NY in June 1984. Ever since, the ministry has continued to increase and multiply by God’s grace.

Today it has two worship centers; a Bible College, a pre-kindergarten to 12th grade Christian School and a 2,500-seat Cathedral and Convention Center all situated in different parts of the Bronx, New York. Besides the New York centers, the ministry also has established ministries in Florida, Georgia, and Mississippi as well as affiliate ministries in 22 countries.

We teach the power of taking authority over poverty, sickness, stagnation, and any other thing that prevents believers from living the abundant life promised to us in God’s word. Together, we are learning how to walk in the dominion God gave to us as revealed in the Bible

We believe the intent of God is for believers to achieve prominence in business, government, healthcare, academia, and in all aspects of life for His glory and the benefit of humanity. In doing so, we do our part to fulfill Scripture by ensuring that God’s Kingdom comes and His will is done on earth, as it is in heaven. We do NOT teach a prosperity gospel, focused only on living our best lives here on earth. We understand that we are all sinners saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ & repentance and that we will suffer many trials in this world. But we also understand that it is not the desire of our Master for us to live in chronic defeat, and He gave us the power to overcome in His name.
