HEART SURRENDER MINISTRY

ABOUT US

 MARY LEE     ROGER   BILL

   We began our Ministry  together in the most unpredictable way that only God could orchestrate.  We first met at a fund raising banquet only two weeks after Mary Lee had given her fear and hate for sex offenders over to Christ Jesus.  Roger had been out of prison for about one year, and during his five and one-half years in prison, he committed his life and heart in service to the Lord, Christ Jesus.  While in prison he learned who Christ really was and accepted Christ's healing of his brokeness incured as a sex offender.  Because of these two life-altering events, God enabled us to come together into a ministry.  

    During the following year, the Holy Spirit led us individually to realize that God owns our testimonies and wants to use them for His good purpose to benefit others.  Along with two of our support partners, Bill Summy (Mary Lee's husband), and Karolyn Zbornik, we counseled with our pastors.  It soon became apparent that God was shaping us into a team for the purpose of spreading God's reality, love, forgiveness, and hope to those affected by child abuse, sex abuse, and abortion.  On May 16, 2004, we stepped forward with faith into God's calling.  As a step in obedience  and commitment to serve Christ, we entered into a Ministry Covenant with God, spoken during a ceremony led by our senior pastor, Reverend Eric Sloter.
