Acts IV Ministry Volunteer Team Serving the Lord

Director Rev. Jim & Terri Ekensten - Born and raised in Ashtabula. In 2003 God laid this ministry upon our hearts and after losing everthing we had to house & barn fire, the enemy had to replace all he took from us sevenfold, and after a long hard year, this ministry was opened with a vision to see the Lame walk, the sick healed , blind eyes opened, and people saved.

It was through divine intervention, that my wife & I discovered Acts IV Ministries at a crucial time in our lives. Jesus said; “freely you have received, freely give”. It is my wife & I’s desire as members of Acts IV Ministries to give to the community what Jesus & Acts IV has given to us.
