Bishop Fred T. Simms is an
outstanding anointed man of God for today's Church.—to take
us into the new age.
Mr. Simms was saved April, 1977. He was ordained as a deacon in
October 1977. Deacon Simms began to fulfill the call of God on
his life on December 18, 1977 by preaching the gospel of Jesus
Christ.
Elder Simms served as Assistant Pastor of New Jerusalem Holiness
Church in Beckley, WV for 14 years. Then God gave him
instructions to start a ministry "from the ground up."
The dream was fulfilled on February 1993. God blessed and moved
in a mighty way and allowed Heart of God Ministries to construct
and build their present church building in three years time.
Elder Simms was ordained a Bishop on November 1997 by the
Apostolic Faith Churches of Jesus Christ.
Bishop Simms is married to Marilyn Simms and together they have
five daughters and four grandchildren.
Bishop Simms' main goal is to reach the community with
the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to bring people into a
place in the Spirit of true Praise and Worship.
"No weapon that is
formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall
rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the
heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is
of me, saith the LORD"
(Is. 54.17).

Thy word is
a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.(Psalms 119:105)
- If I say, "I will not
mention him, or speak any more in his name,"
- there is in my heart as it
were a burning fire shut up in my bones,
- and I am weary with
holding it in, and I cannot. (Jeremiah 20:9)
-
- I will bless the
LORD at all times: his praise shall
continually be in my mouth.
- My soul shall make
her boast in the LORD: the humble shall
hear thereof, and be glad.
- O magnify the LORD
with me, and let us exalt his name
together.
- I sought the LORD,
and he heard me, and delivered me from
all my fears.
- They looked unto
him, and were lightened: and their faces
were not ashamed.
- This poor man
cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved
him out of all his troubles.
- The angel of the
LORD encampeth round about them that fear
him, and delivereth them.
- O taste and see
that the LORD is good: blessed is the man
that trusteth in him.
- O fear the LORD, ye
his saints: for there is no want to them
that fear him.
- The young lions do
lack, and suffer hunger: but they that
seek the LORD shall not want any good
thing.

with you.

and after the wind an earthquake; but

and after the fire a still small voice.
