Kenny Gadsden

Kenneth W. Gadsden is married to wife Deborah and is a Field engineer/ Senior Technician for a major Healthcare corporation. 

In 1976 Ken's life was revolutionized as he accepted Christ as my Personal Lord and Savior. It all started in his parent’s den:   Having a strong interest in reading encyclopedias, Ken found himself always being drawn to biblical stories.   As he began reading the book of Romans, he remembered hearing a voice speaking.  Hindsight he now knows it was the Spirit of God. He confessed Roman 10:9-10 and God's voice saying "Now you must confess me before men". 

As the years passed, Ken started attending bible studies and small fellowship groups.  After learning of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit his hungry increased, however his first attempt to receive Him, with the evidence of speaking in a heavenly language, failed. 

On May 16. 1986 Ken had a second awakening. While lying on his bed he began to cry out for the Holy Spirit, it felt like somebody was pouring warm water down his body, and immediately he began to speak as the spirit gave me utterance. His life would never be the same.

Today, as part of the team of Mantle of Power Ministries Ken now gets to travel coast to coast and serve God’s people and enjoys his walk with the Lord Jesus Christ. - 2 Timothy 2:15

Thomas Golden

In 1993, Thomas Golden moved to New Jersey from Minneapolis, MN.  At that time, he was so deep in debt and without God that weeks would go by where he didn't eat meals but rather water and crackers. 

Tom gave his life to the Lord in the fall of 1993 and hasn't been the same since.  A short time later, God spoke to him on how to get out of debt and gave him a plan to budget the financial affairs of his household.  In 1996, he was totally free from debt.

God’s mandate for Tom is to operate in the revelatory gifts (Acts 2:17-21, I Corinthians 14) to edify the body of Christ through prophetic utterance, dream interpretation, signs and wonders and creative miracles. 

Today, Tom lives in Tennessee with his wife Tami where they attend Father's House pastored by Kraig & LaSandra Wall.  Both Tom and his wife are serving in diverse functions with Mantle of Power including website development, publications and administration.

Royelle Glover

I waited patiently for the Lord; and He inclined unto me, and heard my cry. He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my foot upon a rock, and established my goings. And He hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: Many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord. – Psalm 40:1-3

Imagine being in a bottomless pit for 20 years. That was reality for Royelle until she totally surrendered to God and allowed Him to establish her ways. Now, instead of drugs and alcohol, Her mouth is filled with praise, joy and love for the Lord.

Royelle is a light to all those around her and longs to bring all people, especially those who are broken-hearted and wounded, into the presence of God through true worship.
