Jerry West is anointed!  His no non-sense approach to teaching and preaching the Word of God is both refreshing and rejuvenating.  Jerry's personal testimony had a profound effect in raising the level of faith of our congregation.  Every emotion was felt and our spirit man lifted as he proclaimed with zest and vigor that Jesus Christ is Lord regardless of our present circumstance or situation.  The Body of Christ will be built up unto a more perfect man when having Jerry West Ministries come to your church! Merton L. Clark, Pastor Truth Revealed Ministries, Inc. Palm Bay, FL. www.truthrevealed.org Warm Greetings in the Precious and Wonderful name of Jesus! Thank you for your ministry here this past weekend. Your message to our men on Saturday and to our entire congregation this morning was nothing short of outstanding. You were well received and a blessing to all. Again, Thanks! Lynna and I enjoyed our time of fellowship with you and are looking forward to doing more ministry and fellowship again in the future. In His Service, Bill Roberts Senior Pastor Christ Chapel Woodbridge, VA www.christchapel.org This letter is to recommend Jerry West.  Jerry worked with me for 7 years as apart of Strike Force International.  During that time he submitted himself to a learning agenda as a man of God, not only to personally grow and develop himself, but to rise above being an individual contributor through the use of his God given gifts and talents, but he became a team player with my organization. Strike Force traveled extensively throughout the United States of America and in different parts of the world helping local churches to reach beyond its doors to the local community and particularly the public schools of America.  Team Strike Force became an extension of the local church as an evangelistic tool and arm into the marketplace and literally hundreds of thousands of people were impacted by the gospel of Jesus Christ.  Jerry not only worked as a Team member, but helped to organize large and small events and eventually became one of the team leaders.  During his 7 years of distinguished service with Team Strike Force, he proved himself as a man of God, a faithful husband and father and minister of the gospel. Several years ago, Jerry received a diagnosis that no one ever wants to hear…Cancer of the worst kind…blood cancer.  God has miraculously touched him and now through personal and professional brokenness he has been qualified by God to bring hope where there is no hope. From his experience as a well-traveled evangelist who not only worked with a team, but helped churches all over America to reach people beyond the reach of most church cultures and programs…to NOW, a walking miracle, God has given this man of God an arsenal of life experience to help any church, anywhere fulfill the Great Commission. I whole-heartedly encourage you to consider utilizing Jerry West to inspire the brokenhearted, encourage the down trodden and proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ to the captive.  You will not be disappointed.  More than a professional preacher, Jerry is authentic with a simple message and powerful testimony of God’s power. Please feel free to call on me personally and if you would like to know more about who I am and what we are doing to advance God’s Kingdom at Elevate Life Church in Frisco, Texas, visit our website www.elevatelife.com Thank you for your time and consideration of Jerry West. Everyday with Excellence, Pastor Keith A. Craft Lead Pastor, Elevate Life Church We recently invited Jerry West to spend a rather lengthy morning with us where he ministered in both a Breakfast for Champions and the Sunday morning worship service.  He was definitely ready for the challenge.  The last time he was with us was many years ago when he was leading the Strike Force team. Just briefly what I want to say is that Jerry really does want to be what I'll describe as a stimulant to help the Body of Christ grow into her full potential.  Each local Church or part of the Body of Christ is a little unique because of culture, background and even in the specific way in which they represent Christ to the community.  I have seen first hand Jerry's desire to see what God is doing in a place and simply get behind that and push in that direction.  He can be a tremendous catalyst to minister to the personal needs of people as well as speaking a timely message corporately. He isn't the type of person to just come and do his thing, although he could.  He's really concerned about people.  What I've mentioned here are a few ingredients I feel are important and that people are searching for today.  If you're looking for or need a spark of some sort - or wanting someone to come who really cares about the Lord and his people.  Then, Jerry is that type of person.  Growing ever closer to the Lord and moving ahead to the next level is what Jerry is seeking personally and that heart simply spreads to wherever he ministers. James Yoder Lead Pastor, Berlin Christian Fellowship, Berlin Ohio  www.bcfellowship.com Jerry West is a person of excellence and brings a message of hope and freedom to the Body of Christ.  Your congregation will be encouraged to believe God for the impossible and to reach for their God given destiny. Jerry is passionate, prophetic and powerfully anointed to move in the gifts of healing and revelation.  He is an accomplished speaker and author using motivational techniques to empower people to move from where they are into the place God wants them to be." Kevin R. Bishop, Sr. Pastor Cornerstone Community Church, Wisconsin Rapids, WI www.rapidschurch.com Jerry West Ministries comes with a powerful blend of knowledge and experience gleaned from a wide variety of secular and ministry-related arenas. In the seventeen years that I have been acquainted with Jerry, he has lived out his faith both in and out of the spotlight. Jerry and Valerie are real people who have experienced not only “green pastures”, but also “the valley of the shadow of death”, and they have learned how to fight fear. Their compassion for the needs of others and their practical approach to motivating the believer to find and fulfill his purpose are key ingredients that make their ministry so effective. When Jerry has ministered in the local church, he has always been submissive to the individual preference of the pastor. He is always a blessing to the church body as he both seriously and humorously inspires and challenges the people through the preaching of the Word of God and sharing his personal experiences. We always look forward to Jerry coming to Gateway. I can highly recommend Jerry West Ministries to you and your local church. Jeff Krist Lead Pastor GateWay Assembly Imlay City, MI  www.gatewayassembly.com Greetings in the wonderful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior.   Thank you, Brother, for your ministry of God's Holy Word.  The congregation readily received your instruction and were blessed by your testimony of God's healing power. I especially appreciated your humble spirit and servant's heart which you exhibited, even as you preached the Word with authority. God bless you.  Your friend in Christ, Grant Thigpen, Senior Pastor New Hope Ministries Naples Florida  www.newhopeministries.org "I have been blessed to know Jerry West for 12 years. His ministry truly speaks for itself. I have heard many evangelists speak but few produce the fruit that Jerry's ministry has. A Pastor's worst nightmare is handing over the pulpit to someone they are unsure about. I am never hesitant to hand mine to Jerry. I highly recommend Jerry West along with his wife Valerie for any ministry opportunity." Pastor Matt Thrasher Belton First Assembly, Belton Texas www.faog.net It was a pleasure to have Jerry West minister in our church recently. His candor, humor, and miraculous recovery from cancer kept even the teen population in absolute attention. If you have opportunity to host this powerful ministry in your church, I would absolutely encourage you to do so! Your church will benefit tremendously from this man’s ministry. In Christ, Pastor Dennis Miller, co pastor  Cathedral of the Palms, Corpus Christi Texas I recently invited Jerry West to hold four day's of special meetings at our church, River of Life Christian Fellowship, Durant, Oklahoma.  It was a great time of ministry and moving of the Lord. Jerry is dear friend of our's and has been for many years.  He has always ministered very effectively and sincerely for the Lord.  Jerry is such a joy to be around and our people love him.  I highly recommend him to minister. I know that he will bless any church congregation and affiliations etc. are not a hindrance to him. He comes from a long line of ministers and is sensitive to the issues that pastors have concerns about. It is my privilege to say he is my friend, but especially, he is committed to, and in touch with the Lord Jesus. In His Love and Service Rev Douglas R. Lott II Founder and Senior Pastor River of Life Christian Fellowship, Durant OK    Jerry West is a man after God’s own heart... What a pleasure to have Jerry and his beautiful wife Valerie be a part of our Church Family.  His testimony and the word from his heart are inspiring, and challenge some of the traditions of men that many of us walk in.  Mark 7:8-9 You have let go of the commands of God and are holding on to the traditions of men."  And he said to them: "You have a fine way of setting aside the commands of God in order to observe your own traditions!  Your congregation/family will be encouraged, blessed, and challenged by the words from his heart.  I fully agree with those who say that he is powerfully anointed to move in the gifts of healing and revelation.  Van Sowerby, Sr. Pastor, Fairlawn Baptist Church, Fort Pierce, Florida We recently had Pastor Jerry West here at Voice For Jesus Church and he brought a great word from the Lord. Our people were really blessed by his visit.  I was truly inspired. He gave his testimony about how the Lord completely healed him of terminal cancer. It was really a great morning at the church. He gave an invitation for prayer and everyone except four people came forward. I have never seen that happen. Every chair was empty. And he prayed for all the people. I look forward to having him back. If you are thinking of having him at your church I am sure that you and your people will be blessed. He and his lovely wife showed great respect and integrity for my position as Pastor. There is no reason you would regret having him. So if you are considering it I would highly recommend Pastor Jerry West. Pastor Wayne Cochran Sr Pastor, Voice For Jesus Church Miami FL  www.voiceforjesus.org Rev. Jerry West preached at my church last Sunday, August 3rd, 2008. His sensitivity to the Holy Spirit's leading was very evident by the subject of his message the Spirit gave him. That credential alone of intensive listening to God for His truth is one Godly quality, among many others, that is prompting me today to recommend Pastor West to your fellowship as a guest pastor-teacher. I and our church heartily commend this dear brother and his wife Valerie to you for your prayerful consideration before God as to His leading in using Jerry and Valerie within their anointed ministry, Jerry West Ministries! Pastor Mark P. Patterson Alliance Community Church, Sebastian FL. I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate you coming to Polk County FL to speak at our Faith Leader’s breakfast. The feedback we have received has been great; we truly enjoyed meeting you and hearing your presentation. Again, thank you so much for helping us make a difference here in Polk County Florida. There should be more people like you! Terri Chambers, Healthy Start Coalition, Winter Haven FL In memory of Pastor Jack Hart Jerry West’s message is both timely and dynamic; he is anointed as he shares his heart with the congregation. Jerry needs to be heard all over this nation; it will certainly bring hope and encouragement to everyone, everywhere, especially those who are in a crisis situation. Your congregation will be challenged to reach toward God with renewed hope and more determined faith. Jack E. Hart, Sr. Pastor New Hope Ministries, Vero Beach, Florida  www.hope4you.us
