About Pastor Don

Pastor Don Eldridge has a shepherd's heart and is committed to God and the truth of His word to help people walk in personal victory and fulfill the call of God on their lives. His life exemplifies and fulfills what the scripture says in Jeremiah 3:15;

"And I will give you shepherds according to My heart, who will feed you with knowledge and understanding"

Since recommitting his life to Jesus Christ during his senior year in high school (1978) he has had a desire to know God's Word and share its truths with His people. One habit he developed early on was scripture meditation and memorization. This has helped him to walk in personal victory and operate more effectively in ministry to others.

After graduating from Bethany College in Santa Cruz, California in 1985, Pastor Don pioneered a traveling ministry for nine years, ministering in various denominations and churches. Through that time he developed an appreciation and respect for the variety of streams in the body of Christ.

A word given to him early in his ministry that set the tone for his itinerant work was from 1 Corinthians 12:31 (King James Version),
But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet show I unto you a more excellent way.

In the traveling ministry he often taught people how to operate in the gifts of the Spirit and how to receive a prophetic word from the Lord. In the pastorate he continues in the prophetic ministry, corporately and individually speaking, "edification, exhortation and comfort." (I Corinthians 14:3).

Along with the responsibilities of the local church he is also a market place minister.  He has excelled in professional sales, and has an understanding and anointing for business people.  God has raised up Daniels and Josephs in the last days to fund and spread the gospel.

Pastor Don's heart and vision is to have a ministry of integrity that equips believers to walk in victory through the Word in the power of the Spirit, and be prosperous in every area of life.
