My prayer is that you will read the enclosed material very carefully and share it with others. First, it is an attempt to share how the gracious hand of God has been upon me and our ministry in order to accomplish great work to God’s glory! Second, it offers some insight into the path of leadership preparation God has lead me through in order to be prepared to serve this present age. Third, there is revelation of what God will do through a “Christ Centered, People Oriented, Servant Leader” that is committed to hard work and visionary ministry.

I humbly request your prayers, support and vote (if applicable). Together, we can make a positive difference in our beloved Zion for this 21st century. Together, we can give leadership that will promote church growth and development, including planting new churches where people live; educating our children; training our leaders; launching effective initiatives in economic development, evangelism, discipleship and spiritual formation.

I believe “the best is yet to come” for the A.M.E. Church. However, achieving the best will require the right leaders in the right place at the right time, for the right purpose and in right relationship with God and humanity in order to bring about the right results. I believe God is calling me to be one of those leaders to make a positive difference through Episcopal service.

Thanks for your support!

Yours in Christ Service,

Rev. Dr. Ronnie E. Brailsford, Sr.
Senior Pastor
Bethel A.M.E. Church
