Faithful is He who promised
“For we have judged Him faithful who has promised.”Hebrews 11:11
Pastor & Lady Stevens
Samuel E. Stevens met his girlfriend, now wife, Andrea Dukes Stevens, in 1993. The two tied the knot in November of 1995 at Mt. Calvary Baptist Church, and together they were blessed with two beautiful children.
In November of 1996, Pastor Stevens answered the call to ministry, serving faithfully at Mt. Tabernacle Pentecostal Church. Later, in April of 2006, First Lady Stevens also heard the call and pursued her ministry. Through the years, Pastor Stevens remained faithful to God’s call, and in March of 2018 he was elevated to Pastor of St. James Pentecostal Church in Greenville, SC.
The journey brought triumphs, frustrations, and responsibilities, yet Pastor and Lady Stevens set their faces like flint to follow Christ’s footsteps. In May 2016, God gave them a fresh vision. Then in November 2022, following God’s voice, they stepped out in faith and obedience to begin a new work. On January 1, 2023, F8ith City Church, Inc. was officially launched in Mauldin, SC.
Those who know Pastor and Lady Stevens describe them as loving, trustworthy, humble, and genuine. Their marriage is an example of unity and godly partnership, and together they live to glorify God in all they do.
