Pastor Kenny Smith

A Life of Service and Faith:

Pastor Kenny Smith, a devoted servant of God, was born and raised in St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands. His journey of faith and service has been deeply intertwined with his commitment to both his country and his calling into ministry.

On February 17, 2002, while serving in the U.S. Army, Pastor Kenny surrendered his life to the Lord, marking a pivotal moment that would shape the rest of his life. With 21 years of honorable military service, he learned the values of discipline, leadership, and sacrifice-qualities that would later define his ministry.

That same year, he met the love of his life, a fellow soldier who shared his dedication to both faith and service. Their bond grew strong, and in September 2004, they united in marriage, building a life centered on love, faith, and a shared mission to serve others.

Also in 2004, Pastor Kenny took his first official step into ministry by becoming a deacon, humbly embracing the role of a servant leader. His hear for service and his desire to support the work of the Lord led him to continue growing in ministry. In 2007, he was ordained as a minister, further solidifying his commitment to spreading the Gospel and uplifting those in need.

In 2020, after 13 years of prayer and unwavering faith, God answered a long-held desire of Pastor Kenny and his wife-the blessing of a child. Their son, Adoni, was born, a testament to God’s faithfulness and perfect timing. The birth of Adoni was a joyful reminder that God’s promises never fail, bringing a new dimension of love and purpose to their lives.

In 2022, Pastor Kenny answered the call to serve as Pastor, stepping into a new level of leadership and obedience to God’s will. Through this calling, God birthed God’s Family Ministries, leading Pastor Kenny and his family to San Antonio, Texas. With a heart for building strong spiritual foundations and fostering a family-centered ministry, Pastor Kenny continues to serve with humility, passion, and unwavering faith.

Although called to leadership, Pastor Kenny has always found fulfillment in working behind the scenes, ensuring that the work of the ministry thrives. His humility and dedication to service have made a lasting impact on those around him, demonstrating that true leadership is found in servanthood.

Pastor Kenny’s life is a testament to faith, dedication, and unwavering service-both to his country and to the Kingdom of God. Through his journey, he continues to inspire and uplift others, always walking in the purpose to which he was called.

Pastor Vanessa Smith

A Life of Faith and Purpose:

Born and raised in Fresno, CA, Pastor Vanessa Smith, affectionately known as Pastor V, has always had a heart for God. Her mother lovingly recalls that at just two years old, Pastor V gave her life to the Lord, and by eight, she was filled with the Holy Spirit. Even at such a young age, her passion for Jesus was undeniable.

At 18, she answered another call-to serve her country-by joining the military. Through every season of life, her deepest desire was to follow God’s will, trusting Him with her future-including the dream of finding a husband who would not only love her but also lead with faith. She prayed for her future spouse, never imagining that God would answer in such an incredible way-blessing her with a husband who surpassed every expectation and every checklist she could have dreamed up.

Since September 2004, she and Pastor Kenny have walked through life hand in hand, believing for a family filled with children. The journey wasn’t always easy, but God’s timing proved to be perfect. After years of waiting and trusting, they were blessed with their miracle baby, Adoni, in 2020. In a beautiful twist only God could orchestrate, he was born on their wedding anniversary-a reminder that God’s promises are always worth the wait.

Pastor V has an undeniable love for people. She pours her heart into helping others step into their God-given calling and purpose, always encouraging them to trust in His plan. Whether she’s ministering, mentoring, or simply sharing a moment of kindness, she radiates the love of Christ in all she does.

In 2022, Pastor V was called alongside her husband to serve as a Pastor, where her journey continues to be one of devotion, perseverance, and divine fulfillment-a life lived in surrender to God’s plan, proving that His blessings always arrive right on time.
