Unlike the generation that knew not the Lord, God is calling a "Generation of Young People with Apostolic Power" (GAP), to reach other youth. We believe that the youth are a vital part of the church today, not the church of tomorrow. Here at AT we are working with the youth to develop their own relationship with God. The youth's relationship with God is being strengthened through prayer, worship, the Word, and becoming actively involved in the youth minstry.
Rev. Lawrence & Sis. Naomi Warfield
Rev. Lawrence & Sis. Naomi Warfield, recently placed over the youth
department here at AT, are excited, dedicated and passionate about
young people. Born and raised in church as a PK, Rev. Lawrence has
always been involved with church. He started a youth choir at his home
church, True Light Apostolic Faith. From there, God led Rev. Lawerence
to Christian Life Center in Stockton, CA where he joined the CLC Youth
Choir and attended CLC Bible College.
After Bible college, Rev. Lawrence assisted his father, Pastor of the
River of Life Apostolic Church in Stockton, CA. While at his father's
church, Rev. Lawrence served in the capacity of Youth Pastor and
Minister of Music. Rev. Lawrence furthered his ministerial training at
Greater Grace Ministerial School in Sacramento, CA where he received
his ordination and ministerial license.
Having to relocate to the city of Turlock, CA due to his occupation,
God drew the Warfield's to Apostolic Tabernacle Church in Merced, CA
where they were called to the Youth Ministry. Rev. Lawrence and his wife Naomi
will be celebrating their 4th anniversary this coming August, and have a 1 year
old daughter, Cesiah.
