It is with great joy and overflowing gratitude that I welcome this opportunity to serve the community of St. Louis through the voice of Gateway To Agape. Through a guiding of Spirit and a divine calling to service, I was blessed with the amazing honor of bringing this powerful voice of Agape ministry forward. I have witnessed the transformational and healing power of Rev. Michael and Rickie Beckwith's music not only at The Agape International Spiritual Center but also through my experience with Gateway to Agape. My sincerest desire is to share this powerfully inspritational message and music with all. I am deeply grateful to be used in such a magnificent way. Come, be blessed and experience the joy, the life, the love which is Agape!
