Minister Lamont Bennett

Personal Beliefs:

After accepting Christ at an early age I found comfort in the House of the Lord. I began singing, worshipping and serving in the church in whatever capacity I could. Serving as an Acolyte at Greater Walters AME Zion under now Bishop George W. Walker Sr., I learned close up what the service of the Lord looked like and I wanted to be a part of it. It was easy to go to church and stay all day soaking up the love of God. It was awesome just to tarry in His presence going to several churches and programs even during the week.

Calling/Education/Accomplishments:

I knew for a long time God was calling me to serve him on a greater level, but in my mind I was not ready, so I ran for many years. When I got tired of running I finally accepted His call in 2002 at Church of the Living God CWFF under Pastor Rodney Watkins, and I have been working to make up for the time I lost ever since. Maybe that is the cause for the dedication I pray you all see in me.

Favorite Verse: Psalms 1:1-3

I find peace in so many of the scriptures that it is difficult to claim one as a favorite. It seems each month or week and sometimes each day, a different scripture is my favorite. Today that favorite is Psalms 1 which reads;

1 Blessed is the man

   Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly,

    Nor stands in the path of sinners,

    Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;

2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord,

    And in His law he meditates day and night.

3 He shall be like a tree

    Planted by the rivers of water,

    That brings forth its fruit in its season,

    Whose leaf also shall not wither;

    And whatever he does shall prosper.

I’m praying I become that man! This temple is still under construction.

Personal Testimony:

I have a passion to serve God and minister to God’s people, especially the children.
