Troy Ray Brimingham loves the Lord Jesus Christ - and he wanted everyone else to love and serve Him too. That was his mission in life. Born October 12, 1938 in Booneville, MS. Troy was raised in an Apostolic Pentecostal church family. As a young adult, he strayed away from church. But something kept calling to him throughout the highs and lows of life. In his early 40’s, he decided that God was missing in his life and he found his way back to an Apostolic Pentecostal church where (in December of 1985) he repented of his sins, was baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ and was filled with the Holy Ghost according to Acts 2:38. From that day on he sought to know more about God. Both he and his wife fell in love with foreign missions where they traveled numerous times to Haiti & Brazil while also financially supporting the works there. In 2010, a dream came true when they traveled to Israel and returned with a lifetime of stories.

Psalm 91:14-16 KJV

[14] Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. [15] He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him. [16] With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.
