My name is Rebecca. Two weeks ago my son Trace and I moved across the globe (for the second time) from our hometown of Manchester, England, to pastor Epicenter School of Supernatural Ministry in San Francisco, CA.
ESSM is a Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry affiliated ministry training school designed to train and equip powerful individuals who have a desire to take God's presence into their sphere of influence. ESSM is being hosted by Promised Land Fellowship - an awesome, spirit filled church right in the heart of SF.
I believe that God has big plans for the city of San Francisco. I believe with my whole heart that God adores this city, and I am honored to get to play a part in seeing this city covered with His glory. I loved San Francisco before I ever saw it. I have had dreams of being in this city; of flying over the Golden Gate bridge; of training and equipping people to bring transformation into their realms of influence. Now here I am - living my dreams.
Let me give you a little bit of background info. I packed up my comfortable christian life into four suitcases (for the first time) at the age of 19. I moved to the small town of Redding CA, in search of God. It was that simple. I heard feint whisperings of a God who was real, of a God who could invade the world with His goodness, and of a christian life that involved bringing heaven to earth. I heard stories of cancer being healed. I heard testimonies of limbs growing, of tumors disappearing, of poverty being eradicated in a city. As I heard stories of what was happening in this tiny town in Northern California I began to cry. Inwardly, I made a covenant with God. I said "God, you can have my home, my friends, and my family; but I have to see you move in power."
I was desperate - desperate to no longer pay lip-service to the religious traditions of my family but to find God for myself. And so the journey began.
When I say 'it was that simple' please let me explain - the decision to follow the prompting of the Lord was simple. Packing life into suitcases was relatively simple. Overcoming the obstacles of having no money, no flights, no accommodation, no visa, and a lost passport just weeks before I was due to leave for the US; even that was a simple fix for the King of Kings.
What I encountered whilst living in Redding CA and attending Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry was a branding. My heart and my flesh began to burn for revival, for personal, economic, societal, and global transformation. I began to be stirred with a desire to raise up an army of people who also longed to be able to give the world an encounter with God.
Moving to San Francisco to pastor Epicenter School of Supernatural Ministry marks the beginning of a new chapter in life for me and my son, for the students of ESSM and for the city of San Francisco.
