About Us

Dear Friends,

Since 1985  when Jesus saved our lives, my wife Donna and I have served the Lord in full time ministry. We have been youth leaders, worship leaders, assistant Pastors, and Pastored churches in Connecticut and Florida until 2004.  At the direction of the Lord, we moved to Tucson Arizona to begin to build a Spiritual Base of Operation for the Lord. The Base consists of an accelerated training school for missionaries and ministers and a 24/7 prayer and worship center for the nations called the IAM Center of Tucson.

We are presently ordained through Pinecrest Ministerial Fellowship in Sallisbury Center, NY and I also an ordained missionary through International Accelerated Missions of Berne, NY. I serve  in Tucson Arizona as an IAM Bible Training Center Director and missionary.

Donna and I have ministered prophetically and pastorally for over 20 years ministering healing and deliverance by the abiding presence of the Lord. God has used us recently in establishing houses of prayer in Arizona, Colorado and in 2008 in Mexico. We have had two graduating classes from the IAM Bible Training School as well. 2007-2008 will add two more training Schools and the establishment of the Tucson Regional House of Prayer.

In the last year, God has birthed Flames of Fire ministry from a revival meeting held in Milliken, Colorado. The Lord came and changed the spiritual atmosphere over the city and many received Jesus as Lord and a call of prayer burned in the hearts of the churches. This fire spread to Greeley Colorado and formed a  Northern Colorado Regional House of Prayer for the region, state, the local churches and the nation. The Spirit of God fell like flames on all who came to the meetings and seminars.

From there, the Lord's fire continued to move and a door was opened in Muzquiz Mexico where the flame burned in the Assembly of God church there. It was the first church in the early 1900's filled with the Holy Spirit and God sent a fresh outpouring of fire upon them in 2007.

It is our hope and desire to "equip the saints" to do the work of the ministry. That God would make each believer as the bible says, "He makes His ministers a flame of fire" (Hebrews 1:7).  Flames of Fire ministries is an extension of the IAM center of Tucson and IAM International out of Berne, NY. We are presently serving under the direction of Pastor Jay T. Francis, President of IAM and Pastor of Rock Road Chapel of Berne NY.

We give all the Glory to God who is returning His church to their first love, a real and genuine flame of love for Him and for one another. To God be all the praise.
