In 1977, following a vision from the Lord, Napoleon Rhodes,
Senior, contacted two of his dearest friends and founded Word
Counselors Ministries, as a ministry of helps to the Body of Christ
The Spirit of God had awakened Napoleon and shown him
that he would be used to help unify the Body of Christ. In his
vision Napoleon saw a multi-denominational body of believers -
Baptists, Methodists, Catholics, Apostolics, COGICs,
COGs, etc.. - marching toward him as he stood near an
opened podium. An angel dressed in minister's clothing and
wearing a broad smile said to him,"it's time for your short
message."
During the ensuing sixteen years, Napoleon traveled throughout
the country ministering to all denominations, races and
cultures the uniting message of salvation through Jesus Christ.The Convention of Covenanting Churches is an outgrowth of
that ministry. It acts as a covering body for ministers and ministries
who desire to form a covenant relationship with Dr.
Rhodes to help unify the Body of Christ - irrespective of
denominational differences, sex, race or cultural bias. As it was with Word Counselors Ministries, The Convention
of Covenanting Churches is a ministry of "helps" to all who
believe in Jesus Christ and accept Him as Savior and Lord.
