Pastor Samuel Tyler is a native of Newport News, Virginia.   He is married to Pastor Andrea Tyler and is a father and grandfather. As a child, he had a strong desire to become a veterinarian. He pursued that dream and graduated from Tuskegee University School of Veterinary Medicine.  While preparing for graduation at Tuskegee, he had a visitation from The Lord.  As Samuel began to seek God in earnest, he realized a call to the ministry. In 1983, he began to function in a teaching ministry while involved in helping establish local churches.  Pastor Tyler is an ordained minister by the International Church of the Foursquare Gospel headquartered in Los Angeles, California.

Samuel's sole desire is to know The Lord, following Him wherever He leads.  Pastor Tyler's desire is to see the lives of people transformed by the glory of God and experiencing His goodness and love.

She is dedicated to the call of Christ on her life and is a firm believer that The Word of God is absolute truth and therefore holds the final authority in heaven and earth.  She believes the Church will emerge as one that will bring The Lord great joy by becoming glorious, spotless, blameless, holy and without blemish in the days ahead. (Ephesians 5:27).  Her desire is to lead people to experience God's goodness and love, and to see the lives of individuals and families function in God's will and purpose.
