Resurrection Deliverance Church International is an organized and successful ministry of believers from every profession and call, every color and ethnic background in the Body of Christ, bound together to participate in a healthy, wholesome atmosphere of worship, and an empowering environment of Word study.
It started with a Word spoken to Pastor Margaret Martinez back in the early days of January 2006, stating that the time had come to move on to a new land with new horizons. The genesis of a simple but powerful work was in the making. A ministry that was to reflect the Heart of God was being shaped and forged. When the time has fully come, RDCI was brought forth!!!!
Over the course of a few days, a temporary Board of Directors was put in place and a schedule of Church services broadcasted by word of mouth. Soon we were having Church in the business establishment of Brother Douglas Wilson, proprietor of the Future Zone Café, located on Warburton Ave in Yonkers. For the next few weeks we enjoyed refreshing and wholesome times of fellowship in our temporary new home. I wasn’t long, however, before it became apparent we had to move to a larger space, and the quest was on to find a new place of worship.
God moved so quickly and graciously through the generosity of Rev. Dr. Deborah Hicks, Pastor of Bethany A.M.E Church in Yonkers. We were able to assemble in her church for worship throughout the chilly days of February. God showed us great favor, our church grew, and it wasn’t very long before we had to find another place for worship.
In March of 2006, through the graciousness of South Presbyterian Church and its leadership, we moved into our current location 112 Radford Street.
RDCI is led by Pastors Lorenzo and Margaret Martinez. We are unashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and boldly proclaim that we are more than a church, we are a Ministry with a Mission and a Focus directed by God. We are an Assembly of Believers, operating in the present day Ministry of Jesus Christ. To that end, we declare that we will:
To effectively teach the kingdom of God with simplicity with the intent of developing and refining character, purpose and leadership.
The mission statement of Resurrection Deliverance Church is to reach and to teach Christians worldwide who they are in Christ Jesus and how to live a victorious life in their covenant and privileges.
