“Christ said there would always be poor to serve. He didn’t say they had to be hungry.” – Founder/CEO Pastor Earl Fitzsimmons
A follower of Jesus Christ since 1983, Pastor Earl Fitzsimmons battled with addiction until through God’s grace and Alcoholics Anonymous, he is victoriously sober since October 31st, 2006. Pastor Earl integrates principles of the successful 12-step program into discipleship and coaching.
Pastor Earl has over 25 years experience working in the field of discipleship and human relationships. He helps men, no matter their current state in life, understand their role in the Kingdom of God. He has also dedicated his life to ministering to the homeless and low income families in South Dallas. Through food, clothing, recovery programs, and prayer, Pastor Earl empowers and equips others in seemingly hopeless situations to achieve the impossible.
