Amazing Testimonies

I have some Amazing testimonies to the Power of the Lord Jesus Christ and I know you do too! Pastor Joyce Taylor Moten has been a member of the City of Refuge (formerly Greater Bethany Community Church) since 1997. She currently serves as the Associate Pastor of the COR Outreach Ministry Team. She was also the Executive Director of the COR Rescue Outreach until February 2013. In this capacity she ministered to the homeless, poor, sick and discouraged, pronouncing hope to them. She has witnessed the miracle power of God in her life and the lives of His people. She is a woman of faith, who believes that if God’s Word says it HE will do it. She has prayed for countless individuals, and seen them set free from bondages and addictions by the power of the Holy Spirit. A native of Washington, D.C., she received her early Christian training at the Franklin P. Nash United Methodist Church. Her mother, the late Mrs. Odessa Taylor, a Sunday School Teacher, observed Pastor Joyce’s oratory ability as a young child. Mrs. Taylor developed that skill, by teaching her the scriptures and placing her before the congregation to recite them. Mrs. Taylor’s unexpected death in 1977; was the life changing event that sent Pastor Joyce on a quest to find God for herself. The burden of moving through life as a divorcee and single parent brought her to her knees. Overwhelmed and broken by life’s pain she experienced a bout with severe depression. At this low point in her life in 1987, she totally surrendered to the LORD. So grateful to the LORD for his mercy towards her and her family, she began to run for Jesus. Everywhere she went, she testified about the transforming power of God. She began to pray fervently for others to be saved and restored. The grocery store, the beauty salon, the shopping mall were all her pulpit. Anywhere someone would listen, she talked about Jesus. Many of her friends did not understand this radical change in her life and they separated ways. Bu
