Barbados hosting Global Apostolic Conference

A local Pentecostal Church is seeking to push spiritual tourism in Barbados.

The Church of Signs and Wonders Ministries International will be taking the lead when it hosts the Barbados Global Apostolic Conference, May 9 – May 17 at the Barbados Beach Club, Christ Church.

“Barbados’ economy is not the strongest, but Barbados is a decent place and is a country that has set several examples in the past of what we should be doing as a people,” stressed Reverend Joseph Tudor, as he addressed the conference’s press launch at the Church of Signs and Wonders Ministries International in Kendal Hill.

The Conference, which is being held under the theme “God’s Prophetic Outpouring for all people,” will feature Prophet Dr. Belfield Belgrave (Barbados); Prophet Michael Hunter (USA); Apostle Cleon Munroe (Bahamas); Prophet Randy Coggins 11 (USA); and Apostle Leon Wallace (Bahamas).

“We recognise that is important to bring a spiritual movement, because if you look at the number of people who will follow the Prophets, Apostles and travel many miles to come to Barbados, to be in our beautiful environment – we really have a gold mine. In terms of changing the paradigm in Barbados, rather than having every event – calypso – “a wuk up mentality”, we will be changing the paradigm of Barbados into a spiritual movement that is blessed and that this country needs,” he said.

Rev. Tudor also believes the conference is going to set a standard for other churches in Barbados to host similar events, or to join with them in the movement.

Senior Pastor at the Church of Signs and Wonders Ministries International, Jonlyn Harewood, made it clear that the conference is not to be seen as a Signs and Wonders event, but instead as a national faith-based initiative. “This is for the people of this country,” she pointed out.

“We believe that this conference will change the outlook of this nation. Very often gatherings in this nation are for things other than spiritual upliftment. The Reggae Festival, Jazz shows, but nothing is done in terms of spiritual upliftment. I believe it is going to change the spiritual climate of the nation.”

Pastor Harewood also revealed that the conference will include breakout sessions on Managing Guilt; Managing your Bloodline; and Managing Ego States. She explained that these sessions will be extremely impactful,
helping people to move forward in their personal working lives. (TL)
