OUR PASTOR, Apostle Jerome King
Served in the United States Air Force and received the Vietnam Service Medal (VSM, for duties rendered in South East Asia). This medal is given to members of the armed forces for their service during the Vietnam War. While in the service he received training and worked as a "Jet Engine Technician" then pursued technical training in electrical wiring, air condition & refrigeration.
Forty two years ago he accepted the Lord Jesus Christ into his heart and was filled with the Holy Ghost; he joined the Salvation & Deliverance Church family and labored relentlessly in the ministry, serving in the capacities of minister, elder and bishop. He also served as Vice President of the Executive Board and Dean of Saint Paul's Bible Institute. And for many years he held the position of church administrator.
Bishop King served under the auspices of Apostle William Brown where he learned how to be a true servant of God, and the knowledge he has gleaned has prepared him to accomplish the work the Lord has ordained for him to achieve.
As his hunger for the word of the Lord increased, he started attending Saint Paul's Bible Institute where he earned a Bachelor, Master and Doctorate degrees in Theology. Working on the total man, he returned to secular studies where he pursued and received a Bachelor Degree in Psychology from the College of New Rochelle in New York. He continued his studies at Montclair State University in New Jersey where he received his Master Degree in Counseling.
