Spiritual Fathers Summit

Genesis Church
Bloomington, Indiana
(with benefit golf scramble to follow)

Welcome!

We would like to welcome you to the Spiritual Fathers Summit here at Genesis Church. This is not another "how to" or "church growth" conference, but a time of renewal and impartation of Holy Spirit from seasoned professionals that are on the cutting edge of what God is doing in the earth today. Our vision for this conference is that there would be an increase in Holy Spirit's anointing and desire for the people of God to take their God-destined roles as fathers, mothers, sons, and daughters as we serve and love each other in holy communities and remain accountable and teachable in the Kingdom of Heaven.

Walking in the Father's Love,
Pastors David and Maureen Woodcock

Speakers

Apostle John Alley

John Alley gives apostolic fathering to ministries and churches in Australia as well as the Philippines, Cambodia, India, Pakistan and Africa.

With a strong call to pioneer apostolic ministry, John loves to encourage other apostles, as well as pastors and churches. There are many young and old, who look to John as a spiritual father. John has ministered in many nations, and regularly visits South East Asia.

The Lord has given him vital messages for today on apostolic restoration, the reformation of the Church, grace, listening prayer, intercession and other subjects.

Upon John's ministry is an anointing which leaves upon others a powerful and effective impartation of gifts, anointings, and apostolic grace. John travels regularly to proclaim the apostolic message which Christ gave him for the nations, and to advance the reformation of the Church. This message will change Australia.

John Alley is the Senior Minister of Peace Apostolic Ministries and Peace Christian Community, Rockhampton. John's wife of more than 30 years is Hazel, and they have eight children, who are all active in the church and ministry with them.

Apostle Chuck Clayton

Apostle Chuck Clayton and his wife, Karen, were married in 1960. They accepted the call of God to receive Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior in 1968. Shortly after they experienced the infilling of the Holy Spirit and Chuck was called to leave his job at the Colgate-Palmolive Company in Clarksville, Indiana and begin raising up other churches and helping existing churches fulfill their vision.

Chuck and Karen have one son, Jeff, who is serving as Office Manager for the ministry; and also has his own computer business. He and his wife, Terri, have been trained in the Prophetic Prayer Counseling. Terri is gifted in the prophetic and trained in expressive dance as well and is also a licensed Massage Therapist. Jeff and Terri have three children, Victoria (Tori) Lynn, Christian Thomas and Trey.

The Clayton's have begun a Mentoring Program during which time they share their hearts with leadership across the country with the purpose of encouraging and strengthening these leaders to fulfill their destiny in God, and to promote establishing relationships with each other. These meetings have been very instrumental in bringing about unity among the Brethren as they come together from their different streams and begin to flow as one mighty river.

The ministry also provides a Ministry Assessment Program [M.A.P.] for the churches. By interviewing a cross-section of the church congregation we are able to evaluate the strengths as well as any weaknesses in the ministry and make recommendations which are beneficial in helping the pastor and leaders to set goals to strengthen any weakness that may have been discovered. The Lord has used this tool to alleviate potential disasters in many churches.

Chuck has established A.R.M., Apostolic Resource Ministries, with the slogan ... "Establishing Relationships That Build People". This ministry is established upon relationships and the resources are "people".

It is the vision of this apostolic ministry to help establish churches and to strengthen and encourage ministers to stand strong in the vision God has birthed in their hearts.

Apostle Dick Iverson

Dick Iverson is the founder of Ministers Fellowship International, and spiritual father to many pastors around the world.

For 44 years (from 1951 to 1995), Dr. Iverson pastored the same church, Bible Temple (now City Bible Church) in Portland, Oregon. For the first ten years, he and his father co-pastored, and then he became senior pastor in 1961. In 1967, his church started Portland Bible College, an independent Bible college, based in their church and for their church. He has been blessed with many successful "sons" in the faith such as Wendell & Gini Smith who pastor The City Church in Kirkland, Washington, and Frank & Sharon Damazio who now pastor City Bible Church in Portland, Oregon. The church grew from 100 to 3,000 members under his direction, and today has expanded to multiple locations in the Northwest.

Pastor Iverson’s main function is that of apostolic ministry to pastors and church leaders.  He has authored eight books and co-authored a ninth.
