WELCOME
Greetings and welcome to all attendees of the conference! I am immensely
glad for your taking the time to be here. When asked what I expected
this conference would infuse into the hearts of the assemblage, I replied I
believed it would address the individual destinies of all, in definite, clear, and
specific manners, thus “Destiny 2015”.
I am certain that the words from God our Father shared through each
speaker, as well as the activities designed to foster our unity and recreation
as a church family, will make indelible impressions on the remainder of this
year and for years to come. Jesus impacted His followers in many different
ways by involving them in different experiences in various places as He
taught them regarding their futures, and things pertaining to the kingdom
of God. Everything, from a wedding feast, (Cana-the water to wine miracle
without so much as a single grape), to a desert terrain (where over five
thousand were fed with almost zero resources), to a cemetery (Decapolis)
where a demoniac man experienced deliverance, venue changes were
used by the Master. My prayer is that through these four days, the Holy
Spirit of God will have the freedom to instruct us more clearly concerning
our destinies “in Him”.
I also wish to thank Pastor Judith and the conference committee for their
months of planning and service for the success of our colloquy. Please
join me in appreciating them as you interact with this distinguished group
throughout our special time together. Once again, thank you for sacrificing
the things necessary to make possible this exclusive time of fellowship
throughout the course of this Destiny 2015 Conference!

For Ladies Only: This is a Man’s World, But…
Pastor Tony Brazelton
For Men Only: This is a Man’s World, But…
Pastor Cynthia Brazelton
Pastors Tony and Cynthia Brazelton are both natives of the Washington, D.C. area, and
serve as Pastors of Victory Christian Ministries International, a growing, thriving, multiracial, non-denominational, Bible-believing, Bible-teaching church in the Washington,
D.C. metropolitan area with locations in Suitland, MD; Woodbridge, VA; Waldorf, MD,
and Washington, DC. Pastors Tony and Cynthia understand the necessity to produce
understanding in the hearts of God’s people. They believe that it is no longer good
enough to just read, sing, and shout about the power of God and never see the results
of His power; but rather, God’s people must grow to a place where they begin to
experience the favor and the power of God manifested in their daily lives.
Seminar: Coming to Grips with the “X” and “Y” Factors (Singles Seminar)
MODERATOR: Ms. Eunice Elliott
Although a native of Alabama, after graduating from The University of Alabama with
a degree in Journalism/Theatre, Eunice Elliott has spent the greater part of the past
decade traveling across the country pursuing a career in sports media. Eunice has
always been able to leave her special brand of comedy and observation in her wake.
On a whim, Eunice decided to move from the background to the stage and performs
regularly as a stand-up comedian, television personality, and radio host. Her quick-wit,
charm, and social commentary have made her a crowd favorite.
Sessions i & ii: Faith that Works (Faith Seminar) & Built on a Rock (Family Seminar)
SpeakeR: Pastor George M. Matthews, II
George M. Matthews, II is Senior Pastor and Founder of New Life Interfaith Ministries,
Inc., Bessemer, Alabama. He is ordained, licensed, and has pastored churches in the
Pentecostal and Baptist denominations. Pastor Matthews believes the Kingdom of God
on Earth is comprised of a conglomeration of all Christian faiths, and for this purpose,
the Church should emphasize its commonality in the Lord, rather than the lesser areas
of doctrinal differences. The scope of this “interfaith” ministry is to develop believers in
the area of our likenesses in Christ, irrespective of our denominational differences.
