EBENEZER DELIVERANCE TEMPLE


WELCOME

T

oday I regard it a great privilege and honor to serve as the Pastor of this great ministry, Ebenezer Deliverance Temple. I celebrate with all its past and present members on this our 20th Anniversary.

Over the years we have seen the hand of God in such miraculous ways: healing families, transforming communities in our city of Dania Beach Florida and many around the world. Ebenezer Deliverance Temple Ministry was birth in January 1998. When the Lord gave me the vision. I was naturally afraid. The Holy Spirit reminded me about his word in Joshua 1: 5 where, “He said, as I was with Moses, so I am with you. I will not fail you nor forsake you.” I accepted the challenge trusting in the Lord and here we are today. Much thanks and appreciation to everyone who believe with me in the bad times and good times. This day would not be possible without you. Today we are celebrating a great mile stone in the life of Ebenezer Deliverance Temple. We have come this far by faith. Learning on the Lord. Ebenezer Deliverance Temple Ministries is a place where “there is healing for the whole man.” The vision is clear, the journey will never end. Therefore, let us move forward together into the place God has ordained for us. Finally my brethren be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might. The race is not for the swift, neither the battle for the strong. But they that endure to the end shall be save. I give thanks to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for the great things he has done and the best is yet to come. In His Service Apostle Fay Williams


OUR HISTORY

“Honoring the Past, Celebrating the Present, and Embracing the Future.�

T

he birthing of Ebenezer Deliverance came about after God told me to close my business and to move on for him; with much fear I close the business went home not knowing what to do. I was a member of Grace United Community church under the tutelage of Bishop Dennis Archibald. One year after closing the business waiting to hear from the Lord. One Sunday morning November 1997, I heard the Lord spoke and said this will be the name of the ministry. I will be giving you Ebenezer Deliverance Temple. I went to my Bishop and informed him. On January 3rd, 1998 Ebenezer Deliverance Temple was birth in a small Chapel in North Miami Florida, with five persons including myself. I would play the drum, and moderate from there. Then I would get up and preach. After six months there, we felt it was time to move. We went to 12605 North West 17avenue in North Miami Florida. In 2002 with few members and much prayer, we pay down on 3.5 acres of land on Miami Garden Drive in the city of Miami Garden. It was very difficult to obtain financing to close the sale but God worked a miracle for us. Thank you Jesus. Getting ready to build our Edifice, the city of Miami Garden contacted us desiring the property to expand the park behind us, we were force to sell and God bless us with our present building at 2340 Griffin Road in Dania Beach. Thanks to commission Bobby Grace and the leaders of the City of Dania Beach. Over these 20th years, we have had our share of challenges, but with every challenges we made them a stepping stone pushing us closer into the arms of God. Life challenges promise us endless opportunities to reassess, reevaluate and push beyond the boundaries of comfort. 4

We decree and declare spiritual growth and acceleration, wealth, health, strength and vigour, the reclaiming and possession of territorial boundaries, and a spiritual and economical awakening for our leaders, people and nation.

20th Anniversary Celebration

Here we are now twenty (20) years later, celebrating what the Lord has done in this Ministry. I believe that the Lord has called this Ministry to nations. He has started with an arm in Portmore, St. Catherine, Jamaica which was birth in the Year 2012. Out of this birth, the Lord has chosen me, and it is indeed an honour and a privilege to be a part of this Ministry. Through prayer and obedience, E.D.T has experienced the supernatural power of God in miracles, signs, and wonders. Glory to God. This is just a tip of the iceberg because eyes have not seen, neither ears have not heard the things that God is going to do with and through his servants in this Ministry. The latter days of E.D.T shall be greater than the former. We give God thanks for our Apostle, God’s bondservant, for her unwavering commitment to prayer and to the Ministry of the Word. A woman with the Spirit that loves unconditionally, the Spirit that cares about others, the Spirit that comes to serve and not to be served.

Congratulations EBENEZER DELIVERANCE TEMPLE MINISTRIES

W

ithout faith, it is impossible to please God. Ebenezer Deliverance Temple was founded on faith. Much faith had to be exercised as the call to Ministry was a fearful and challenging one, but like Abraham not knowing what to do or where to go our Apostle Fay Williams stepped out in faith in 1998.

EBENEZER DELIVERANCE TEMPLE

Congratulations E.D.T on this your 20th Anniversary. My prayer is that God will continue to strengthen you Apostle with might by His Spirit in the inner man, and to strengthen your physical body to run the race ahead. I am confident that the Holy Spirit, the founder and sustainer of this Ministry, will take this Ministry to it’s expected end, because “It is not by might nor by power but by My Spirit” saith the Lord of Hosts. Pastor Paulette James Portmore, St. Catherine Jamaica


Congratulations to Ebenezer Deliverance Temple on 20 years of service! From its inception, the focus has always been to spread messages of hope and deliverance based on the word of God. In keeping with the motto: “Healing for the Whole Man�, Ebenezer Deliverance Temple has been more than just a place of worship. Ebenezer Deliverance Temple has created a sense of family and community for its members. We are so proud of the work that has been accomplished and we are excited to see what the next 20 years has in store. Kelly & Tasha Sanders Apostle daughter & Son-in-law

20th Anniversary Celebration

I

want to start by saying “congratulations,” which is an expression that is rooted in the combination of two Latin words: gratulari (wish joy) and gratus (give thanks). Praise the Holy Name of Yahshua! Today I gather with those who share a thankful heart to our Heavenly Father, to celebrate His faithfulness. I also come to celebrate and to salute the obedience of Pastor Fay Williams and the people that have stood with the Lord and Pastor Williams on behalf of this work.

I want to encourage the people of Ebenezer to continue trusting, and to continue standing on the Rock of their Salvation. “Rock of my Salvation” is the meaning of the word Ebenezer in its original language. It is a prophetic word and name for this ministry. Ebenezer, the best is yet to come. One more time, Congratulations! Prophetess Iris Reisman

A

heartfelt congratulations goes out to Apostle Fay Williams and Ebenezer Deliverance Temple for celebrating 20 years in ministry. Ebenezer Deliverance Temple has truly been a stone of help in my life and that of my family. I have learnt what being a Christian is all about, from being a part of Ebenezer Deliverance Temple, and will be forever grateful for Apostle’s teaching, leadership, and help throughout the years. Along with Apostle Fay, this ministry has given me the room to grow, and flourish into who I am today. I am thankful for being a part of the ministry and to have been a witness through the years of what commitment, hard-work, and dedication looks like. Knowing the type of leader you are I know you don’t want the attention to be on you, but I just have to say thank you, thank you, thank you. I am thankful for the first phone call I ever received from you while attending Grace United, and I am thankful for your words of advice and encouragement to this very day. Truly its safe to say that you have come this far by faith, or better yet “we” Ebenezer has come this far by faith, and certainly not without the Lord’s help. I pray that the Lord will continue to shower you and the ministry with his grace because I truly believe that if God brings you to it, He’ll bring you through it. From me and my family, just want to say we love you and thank you.

Minister Shawn Ferguson
