Apostles Dr. Gary and Dr. Lela Booker (Senior Pastors)

Apostles Dr. Gary and Dr. Lela Booker were both born in Cincinnati, Ohio and have three children, one son-in-
law and four beautiful grandchildren. They have always had a passion for prayer, praise and worship, and preaching the word of God. They have travelled locally and around the world, preaching and teaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Both have baptized many and laid hands on the sick. Pastors Gary and Lelashawn have a true authentic love for people and passion to unite the power and fire with the excellence and creativity of God.

Their approach has created a place where the people can experience the presence of God and be empowered by the Holy Spirit. Pastors Gary and Lelashawn’s prayer is that Igniting The Fire International Ministries will be a church of diversity that will last for many generations.

Come join us and be ignited with fire and experience the love of God.
