This is a ministry located in Manchester Iowa, Pastored by
Joshua and Jennie Stiefel. We are a Holy Spirit led ministry, not just in words
but also in actions. We work under the authority of the name of Jesus, we reach
the lost for the kingdom, we disciple new believers, in the name of Jesus we
heal the sick, in the name of Jesus we cast out demons, we know that the
baptism of fire of the Holy Spirit is real, we know that the gifts of the Holy
Spirit are for today and we believe in the word of God over false teachings of
religion.
It may seem almost impossible to find a ministry in
America today that is not afraid to teach truth or does not bend to the will of
a fake woke society. We are not your typical feel good rainbows and unicorn
ministry, we know that truth will set you free and we only teach truth from
God. We will not conform to this world but be transformed by the renewing of
our minds with the word of God.
We will NOT put a leash on Holy Spirit out of fear of what
others may think! We are not focused on numbers, social media likes or
popularity; we are focused on expanding the kingdom of our lord and savior
Jesus.

tax exempt status is covered as a ​religious organization
under Section 508(c)(1)(A)
Section 508(c)(1)(A) <http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode26/usc_sec_26_00000508----000-.html>
states that "churches, their integrated auxiliaries, and conventions or
associations of churches" are a mandatory exception to section 501(c)(3),
they are already tax exempt without notifying or applying to the government
under section 501(c)(3). Churches receive the same tax exempt status and
benefits as a 501(c)(3) organization, without the partnership with the
government. We do not have to lose our voice!
In *IRS Publication 526* <http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p526.pdf>,
Charitable Contributions, the IRS once again states that churches are qualified
organizations and do not need to apply to the IRS:
The church as described under IRC 508(c)(1)(A) is also known
as a "Free Church".
THIS MINISTRY IS NOT
UNEQUALY YOLKED TO THE GOVERNMENT!
