Wes Peppers

EVANGELISM DIRECTOR

An evangelism veteran, Wes brings his talents for public speaking and organization to the ministry team as our new evangelism director.

Since August, Wes has helped execute the Revelation Today series, held in October, and planned for future evangelism campaigns. Having done mission work in 35 countries, Wes is ready to lead the evangelism team as It Is Written continues to reach souls around the world with the gospel.

Wes replaces Yves Monnier, who accepted a call to serve as evangelism director in Pennsylvania.

“We’re thrilled to have Pastor Wes Peppers join our team,” said John Bradshaw, It Is Written president. “He is an unusually gifted speaker and evangelist and has been extremely successful in pastoral and evangelistic ministry, as well as in administration. He has a love for souls that is obvious and infectious. It is a privilege to have someone of his caliber join us at It Is Written.”

Wes previously served in Michigan for 10 years as a pastor, personal ministries director, evangelism coordinator, and associate ministerial director. Wes and his wife Marion felt a clear call from God to take the position. “Over a two-month span of time, there were a series of miraculous events that finalized our decision,” Wes said. “After several weeks of fasting and wrestling in prayer, God overwhelmingly confirmed that His will was for us to serve at It Is Written.”

Wes is happy to be here and is passionate about training others on how to share their faith. “I am looking forward to using the gifts and experiences God has given me to minister around the world through It Is Written,” he said, “while personally living in His grace and strength each day.”

Wes and Marion, a musician, have been married for 17 years and are joined in ministry by their two children, Levi and Liana.
