Pastor Mesfin Mamo

Lead Pastor

 

Growing up in a born again Christian family and immersed in church's life since childhood, Pastor Mesfin Mamo has shown a great sense of commitment and service to the work of the ministry. As lay minister, he was privileged to serve the Lord in various ways. Starting as early as eleven years old, he was a choir leader, later a youth leader and a gospel singer for life. He was also involved in Youth for Christ Ministries for several years and also in Jesus Film Ministry which is under The Great Commission Ministries, Ethiopia. Being so passionate about God's Kingdom, he was often tempted to leave his successful career as a Computer Programmer/Analyst in one of the nations major income generating company and also as an instructor of a computer training school, for the work of ministry until the time was right.

 

In the year 1996, he became resident in New York City which led him to join Emmanuel Worship Center in New York. Immediately, he got involved in the church's ministry with passion and dedication. After Serving for one year as a lay minister, he became the Assistant Pastor for the following six years.

​

In August 2003, in response to the call of God in his life, he was ordained to the ministry of full pastorate. Since then, he and his wife, Lily Girma, were dedicated to plant and build the daughter church in northern New Jersey.

 

God has blessed them with three wonderful girls: Abigail, Ruth and Yedidia.
