Our Feature ...............
Pastor Michel White-Haynes is the founder of Greater Faith Temple which is located in the Bronx, NY. In addition to her being the Pastor, she is the Overseer of churches in New York, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Ghana, West Africa. Pastor Michel White-Haynes is no ordinary pastor. She is an obedient servant of God who has kept in line with her assignment. She has dared to venture into territories that many others would not go. She teaches, motivates, encourages, uplifts and openly shares the challenges of life equipping her congregants with the tools to work successfully through them.
Pastor White-Haynes is actively involved and concerned - not only for the health of her church members but the community at large. She encourages them to seek medical care and is not afraid to address the health disparities that are rampant in the minority communities. In fact, she has opened up her church to host a health forum to address the various diseases that have in many cases could have been avoided - an effort to educate and empower the community to act responsibly. Furthermore, the church has participated in various health related fundraising and awareness events.
The ministry was built with the focus on the youth. The youth are encouraged to live their best lives. They are in an environment where they can express themselves through their talents. They sing, dance, rap, write, play their instruments, teach/preach/speak and run jubilantly throughout the church. They are often in the spotlight with an emphasis on their academic and career achievements.
There are other programs within the ministry that reaches out to the community. The church recently participated with the Feed The Children Organization. They also meet the needs of others by collecting clothes, food and host the annual Back to School Rally. An event that gives the students free school supplies - what an incredible impact that must be - just to see the smiles of appreciation on those who may not have otherwise been able to start off the school year equipped with the necessary tools.
Pastor Michel White-Haynes is now an author of her autobiography Left Handed Victory. In this book, she shares the challenges and triumphs of her life. The book serves as an inspiration to all. It allows us to know that we can live our lives knowing that although we have our share of challenges, we can still lead a life of victory. Pastor White-Haynes is well on to her next assignment - her path continues on as she will be a much sought after motivational speaker.
Solutions Health & Wellness salutes Pastor Michel White Haynes for her commitment and dedication to serve others.
