WELCOME TO LIBERATION FELLOWSHIP CENTER INTERNATIONAL 

When I first came to Liberation, I was lost and unaware, just ‘living’ and believing in God was enough. My life didn’t reflect being a true Christian. Pastor Chad and Jasmin helped me grow closer to God and know Him deeply, not just of Him—there's a big difference. I’ve grown spiritually and physically. I don’t know where I’d be without my church family. LFCI is vital to me, and I’m blessed to be part of the Liberation Family. The leadership helped me live by the Word of Jesus Christ, understand the mind of Christ, and apply it daily. It hasn’t been easy, but it's been worth it. I’ve seen God work miracles, heal, and deliver me from past trauma. I can NEVER go back to just living—God is too good. Liberation Family Church is my forever home.

People often turn to the church after a loss or seeking self-improvement, but for me, it wasn't initially about that. I was already active in church, praying, reading my Bible, and fasting, but I was bored and wanted to hear this preacher, who intrigued my teenagers. After the first service, I received a word from God, which surprised me since I hadn't discussed my struggles with him before. I believe the Holy Spirit led me to LFCI because he heard my cries for spiritual nourishment. My life was empty, and I needed truth to grow as a woman of God. Deliverance blessed me, elevating my worship, igniting my faith, and giving me the courage to claim God's promises, leaving the devil behind.

Nobody is perfect, nor is anyone in the leadership of this church. I’ve walked with these people for years, observing our pastors and others in leadership during both high and low times, and I’ve never seen them give up. It's clear they genuinely want to follow what God has for them. I’ve seen what true belief and faith look like, expressed through boldness and love. Their dedication to their calling has never wavered. That calling is to reach the people of Tampa and the world in a way you probably haven't seen before. It is the Bible put into action—allowing the Holy Spirit to work without trying to control the outcome. At LFCI, the pastor does not control the service or the schedule. The beauty of this is that when the Holy Spirit leads, no one gets hurt, and things tend to happen in order. God loves us far more and knows us better than any person ever could. Romans 12:1 says, “I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.” It talks about offering your body to God as a sacrifice. This is the key to why we are the way we are and why we do what we do. It’s also why God is free to move as he does. Come, and you will find a loving family eager to show you what God has for your life.

I am particularly grateful for the love and support Pastor Chad, Jasmin, and the entire LFCI family have shown me during moments of doubt and hardship. Whether it was through a comforting prayer, a kind word, or simply being there to lend an ear, their presence has given me the courage to persevere and trust in God's plan for my life. Pastor Chad and Jasmin have beautifully exemplified what it means to be compassionate and caring shepherds of the flock. Their dedication to our congregation and commitment to fostering a sense of community have created a welcoming and inclusive space for all of us. Through their leadership, our church has become a sanctuary for spiritual growth, fellowship, and love. I cannot express enough how much the ministry has touched my life. The way Pastor Chad and Jasmin live out their faith has inspired me to be a better Christian and to seek God's will in every aspect of my life. Their examples of servant leadership and unconditional love have been a beacon of hope and it has deeply impacted both, my spiritual journey and personal relationships. May God continue to bless them abundantly, granting them the strength, wisdom, and love to inspire others as they have inspired me. I truly thank them from the bottom of my heart.

Since coming to LFCI, my perspective on life has completely changed. I have been freed from witchcraft, bondage, and lies spoken over my life. I’m learning what it truly feels like to enjoy life in Jesus Christ. The journey hasn’t been easy, but it’s been worth it. I am blessed to have amazing Pastors who mentor, love, and lead me along the way. We are fortunate to have Pastors and leaders who genuinely care about us and our walk with the Lord. At LFCI, we are brothers and sisters in Christ first. The Pastors and leaders will welcome you just as you are, and you will feel loved and cared for. I am beginning to learn and understand what true love feels like and what it looks like at LFCI. I can honestly say I know what the love of God and true friendship feel like. There is joy in the house of the Lord and laughter. For the first time in my life, I am learning who Patricia truly is. I am excited to keep growing closer to the Lord and to develop genuine relationships with my church family and with the new people coming in. I’m just getting started! I know God is always with me. He’s my Teacher and Provider. He brings comfort and peace in all circumstances, even when it seems impossible. I am so grateful that God placed me here at Liberation Family Church. I have been renewed and transformed by the blood of Jesus Christ.
