As a dynamic duo, we’ve been blessed to serve at Living Word for over two decades. Married since 2003, our journey began in the vibrant world of Evangelism, where we first connected and shared our passion for reaching out to others. Since then, our love for God and people has only grown stronger. Outside of ministry, we find joy in the simple pleasures of life. We love exploring the great outdoors, savoring delicious meals at new restaurants, embarking on exciting adventures, and connecting with diverse individuals.
Currently, Folu serves in the Guest Ministry Support area under The Ministry of Helps, while Tammara leads the transformative Life and Large Group Ministry. Together, we have the privilege of leading Healing School, Alpha, The Spirit of Seeing and Knowing Prayer Group, and The Inspired Outreach Group. Our hearts are filled with gratitude for the opportunity to serve alongside such an incredible community and to witness the incredible work of God in the lives of others.
Greg Knight
Prison Ministry Leader
Read More
Rev. Greg Knight is an ordained Minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, operating in various five-fold ministry roles, including Evangelist, Teacher, and Pastor. Born in England and raised in a traditional denomination, Greg first encountered the full gospel in 1982, leading to his conversion and baptism in the Holy Spirit. Alarmed by how long it had taken him to hear the gospel, he quickly began street evangelism in his hometown. In 1986, inspired by the call in Joel 3:14, he started holding tent crusades across Europe during his vacations, drawing crowds and witnessing healing miracles and deliverances. By 1987, Greg joined the International Gospel Outreach and was ordained, shifting his focus in 1989 to teaching and pastoral ministry. In 1997, he felt directed by God to step back temporarily from ministry, pursue IT consulting, and relocate to America, where he met and married his wife, Pat, in 2000. They joined Living Word Christian Center in Minnesota, where they raised two children who graduated from MCA. Since then, Greg has traveled as an itinerant minister, teaching and training evangelism teams in France and other countries, and sharing a Living Word Financial Course in France. After years in IT consulting in the UK and the USA, Greg joined the Living Word Prison Ministry around 2018, eventually leading the ministry when prisons reopened post-pandemic.
