An Ekklesia Hub · Suffolk, Virginia

Make a people ready — for such a time as this.

We gather every week for Biblical teaching, interactive ministry, communion and fellowship — where testimonies abound, relationships are strong, and each one is dearly loved.

The warmest of welcomes

We are building family.

We are a safe place, called to “make a people ready… for such a time as this.” Come as you are — you’ll be greeted by name before you leave.

“Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven.”

We are mantled to revive Biblical and Kingdom alignment in study, life and purpose. We function as an Ekklesia Hub: an apostolic center for training and equipping the saints for the work of the ministry.

Our mandate is to equip and raise up strong, passionate believers and leaders — to reclaim and restore the way of Christ, bringing personal, corporate and regional transformation as we partner with the King’s heart for revival, restoration and reformation.

A house of prayer

Birthed & sustained by prayer.

The ministry of the Ingathering is marked by prayer, as we seek the unity of the Spirit by coming into agreement with Him and each other. We strongly believe that the strength and effectiveness of true apostolic ministry is birthed and sustained by prayer.

“For My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations.”

Isaiah 56:7

As John Wesley once said, “God does nothing but in answer to prayer.” On Thursday mornings we seek His direction, hear His heart, and come into sync with Heaven’s Throne Room — confident that Heaven hears and responds.

Since October 2022, our Gatekeepers have renamed the gates of each city and county with a Name of the Lord — driving a stake with His Name and Scripture, anointing with fresh oil, and renewing covenant through communion.
Prayer requests

How can we pray for you?

Our intercessors pray over every request — many of them on Thursday mornings. Share as much or as little as you’d like. We’ll keep it among our prayer team.

“The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.” — JAMES 5:16

Requests go directly to the elders of The Ingathering and are never shared publicly.

Thank you — we’re standing with you in prayer.

Declarations

Everything in the Kingdom begins with a declaration.

When Jesus taught us, “Your Kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven,” it was more than instruction on how to make a prayer request to our Heavenly Father — it was a directive on how to voice a declaration in agreement with the will of the Father.

Declarations are heart resolutions spoken out loud that make us who we are and govern our actions and decisions. They define purpose, activate desire, and reveal and seal our intentions. They empower vision, give direction to forward motion, and set the course for hopes and dreams to become a reality.

Declarations made with faith and in agreement with the word of God receive a resounding “Amen!” from Heaven, releasing its full resources and the influence of the Kingdom of God. We actually invite Heaven into our circumstances by the words we speak in faith.

  • “Death and life are in the power of the tongue.” Proverbs 18:21
  • “Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways.” Job 22:28
  • “By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God.” Hebrews 11:3

We invite you to make these declarations your own by personalizing them as you say them out loud.

Declarations and Decrees Over The Ingathering

May the Ingathering be a place where Your Glory is released and Your Presence dwells and abides here.

Where angels gather on assignment at Your bidding.

Where Holy Spirit has Liberty to save, heal and flow freely and unhindered.

Where ancient wells of water flow – a place of refreshing in a dry and thirsty land.

A place of renewing of our minds.

A place of transformation.

A place full of the life of God.

A place full of Joy and Peace.

A place of abounding Grace.

A place that brings healing to the sick and crippled, and those suffering from affliction.

A place of deliverance for those in bondage to sin, addictions, confusion – that they will find salvation, deliverance and rest for their souls.

A place of safety to grow in their walk and identity in Christ.

A healthy family atmosphere to thrive together, building one another up in our most holy faith.

Not a place of competition but to see everyone excel in the love of God and discover their own unique gifts and callings.

A place to learn how to be a good warrior to fight the good fight of faith.

A place abounding in the Love of God.

A place to raise up disciples of Jesus learning to walk in daily intimacy with Jesus.

A house of prayer for all nations.

A place where Your Word is the plumb line of our faith through Grace and Truth.

A place to walk in the supernatural for with God all things are possible. Only Believe!

We believe in the Power of God and we believe in Miracles!!!

Ministries

Equipping the saints for the work.

Every ministry here exists for one reason — to raise up strong, passionate believers who carry the Kingdom wherever they go. (Ephesians 4:11–16)

Training & ordination

Ingathering School of Ministry

We consider our weekly Bible class a training center and a type of early-church school of ministry. The teaching is relevant to the time and culture in which we live. We diligently seek the Holy Spirit’s leading on the best way to prepare and make ready a people for such a time as this. We hold the Ephesians 4:11–16 and Colossians 1:27–29 mandate ever before us as we seek to create an environment conducive for healthy growth and maturity.

For those who desire to take their training to another level, we have created an opportunity for further study and preparation for ordination. The Church as we have known it is changing — we are transitioning from a Church mindset to a Kingdom mindset. Emerging ministers of the gospel in this day and age need to be equipped with what God is doing, as well as what God has done.

Men with a different spirit

Caleb’s Men

Caleb’s Men takes its name from Caleb, a man known for having a different spirit. We gather not only to encourage one another, but to sharpen each other as men and grow stronger together in faith — a safe place to connect, build community, and stay rooted in God’s love.

We always have donuts and coffee. But above all, we hunger for more of Jesus and to become more like Him.

Special Nights of Worship

As the Lord leads, we set apart special nights for worship and the word of the Lord — through covenant messengers and anointed worship leaders.

Core beliefs

What we stand on.

We receive the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testaments as the final, absolute authority in both doctrine and conduct.

01

God our Father

We believe in One True God, the Eternal King — infinite, unchangeable, perfect in holiness, wisdom, justice, power, authority and love. He is the creator and sustainer of all things and from all eternity exists in three persons, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, equal in authority, power and glory.

Genesis 1:1–3 · 1 John 5:7 · Galatians 4:6 · Matthew 28:19 · 1 Timothy 1:17

02

Jesus Christ

We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Word of God made flesh — His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His atoning death through His shed blood, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His personal, literal return to this physical earth in power and glory.

Isaiah 7:14 · Colossians 1:13–19, 2:9 · John 1:1–3, 14 · Luke 1:26–38

03

The Holy Spirit

We believe the Holy Spirit indwells every believer in Jesus Christ as our abiding Helper, Teacher and Guide. We believe in His present ministry and in the full exercise of all the biblical gifts and the fruit of the Spirit.

The Baptism in the Holy Spirit is a gift from God as promised by Jesus, available to all believers, empowering them to be effective witnesses — releasing a spiritual prayer language, the gift of speaking in tongues.

John 14:16–17 · 1 Corinthians 12:4–11 · Galatians 5:22 · Acts 1:8 · Acts 2:4, 38–39

04

The Scripture

We believe the Holy Spirit inspired the human writers of Scripture so that the Bible is the infallible Word of God — the final, absolute authority in both doctrine and conduct.

Psalm 138:2 · 2 Timothy 3:15–17 · Hebrews 4:12 · 2 Peter 1:21 · 1 Thessalonians 2:13

05

Mankind

We believe God created mankind, male and female, in His own image for relationship with Himself and to govern the earth. Through the fall of Adam, human beings are born in sin, separated from God, and subject to His just judgment.

Genesis 1:26–28 · Romans 3:23, 5:12, 17–18 · Ephesians 2:1

06

Salvation

We believe salvation is made possible through the Lord Jesus Christ — His sacrifice on the cross and His resurrection from the dead. It is available to all, received by grace through faith, and cannot be earned by any amount of good works or human effort.

Psalm 18:46 · Ephesians 2:8 · Acts 4:12 · 2 Corinthians 7:10 · John 3:3–5

07

The Church · Ekklesia

We believe in the one, blood-redeemed universal Church. All who repent and confess Jesus as Lord are regenerated by the Holy Spirit and form the living Body of Christ, of which He is the Head. We receive all five functions of the ministry of Jesus — Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor and Teacher — as operating in the church today. The church is the habitation of God through the Spirit.

Ephesians 4:11–16 · Ephesians 2:22
