Our Story
Touch of Jesus Ministries is taking the Gospel of Jesus Christ
across the globe, with signs, wonders, and miracles following!
Just as Jesus commanded us to do!
How It All Began
At the age of 7, Jesus’ love touched Larry’s little-boy heart, and he gave his life to Christ.
In 1973, Larry got dosed in the Holy Ghost, and his life was totally transformed!
In 1990, an invitation to Nigeria confirmed his calling — sparking a global ministry of healing, prophecy, and evangelism.
Fast forward to 2016, the Lord brought Larry and Melanie together. Today, they are a team continuing to carry the message of Jesus across the world.
