To come together as one to raise up revival leaders!
Read Our Testimony:
Our names are Rodney and Susan Colson. We have taken two totally different paths to get to where we are right now. Susan was raised in a Christian home, but she has since realized that her family had been just going through the motions of Christianity. Susan’s life as an adult took a rough path. After a couple failed marriages, Susan became a single parent with two boys. I, on the other hand, took a different path. I was raised by my mother who was a Christian. I became a believer when I was 12 but never really became disciplined in faith. I turned to satan(I refuse to capitalize this cowards name) and ultimately turned to myself as my god. I became addicted to drugs, alcohol, pornography among many other things, so much as to land myself in prison for 5 years. This is where I rededicated my life to Christ. I have never looked back since. Upon my release, I was reconnected with Susan. On October 26, 2015, this beautiful woman became my wife. On January 1, 2016, after several months of prayer, God placed on our hearts to start our own ministry. This was the kick off of our ministry, A NEW YOU OUTREACH. Our ministry has been involved with assisting families of inmates as well as marriage ministry. Susan and I were ordained January 22, 2017. We have been very active with our ministry, from hosting bible studies to providing food to struggling families. God has opened so many doors for us over the past few years. We are going on our third year as CLI students. We are working towards our Bachelor of Divine Ministry. Susan feels that God has called her to become a Hospice Chaplain. She currently works with the elderly and is full of compassion and love for people. Susan sees the Jesus in all people. We have been appointed as the marriage ministry leaders at our current church. We are both active with Family Life and the Angel Tree Project. We set out to show love to those who feel unlovable and to teach the Good News to those who feel unteachable. We look to find Jesus in all people. We are still in God fire, being refined!!! Our love for God and His love and mercy burns deep inside of the both of us. We are here to do the work of God. We know that God wants no one to perish, so our desire is to go forth and increase the family of believers. We are here to serve and do Gods will.

To raise up a revival for Jesus!

Read Rose's Testimony in her own words
Hello, my name is Rose Zerna, female. I am 43 years old and live in the United Kingdom as an immigrant from the Philippines. I come from a family of 4 siblings and I'm second to the eldest. I am married and have one child. I have one child. My son who is 11 years old is a joy to me and my husband.
Salvation
I am a nurse by profession, specialist in Cardiology. Currently, the Nursing Agency will allow me to manage my own time around family, church, and ministry commitments. I knew the name Jesus from my mother who was a Catholic. In addition, My uncle who passed away was the one who introduced me about salvation and personal relationship with God in Christ Jesus. My uncle was an important instrument who first introduced me to the Truth and truths in the Bible. I have decided to first believe when I felt nothing made sense anymore.
"Indeed, Jesus is the only way, the truth, and the life and no one comes to the Father except through Him."
-Rose Zerna
The Call
I am going to use this ministry that the Lord has entrusted me to preach Jesus Christ, the Grace of God, the message of salvation to multitudes until the Lord calls me home.
In Ezekiel 18:23, the Lord asked a question, “Do I have any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? And not that he should turn from his ways and live?”.
My answer to the Lord is “No Lord! You are not slack concerning Your promise, as some count slackness, but You are longsuffering toward us. You are not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.”
Rose is willing to assist and mentor any student who needs help at CLI.
I am Rev. Andrea Harris.
As a child, I was introduced to the church at a very young age. I became involved with church activities immediately, which I enjoyed a great deal. Besides learning about Christ, it allowed me the opportunity to discover a lot about myself, my gifts, and talents. My involvement in church and Christian activities helped me learn and grow. I began exercising gifts and talents I didn't realize I had.
I accepted Christ and was baptized at a very early age and have kept the Lord in my heart ever since.
The day I received my calling, I accepted it immediately without hesitation. The Lord has bestowed upon me the blessing of spreading His word and telling as many as I can about His goodness.
When I shared my calling experience with others, no one seemed surprised. I was told I had been doing it all along.
Ministry is very important in my life, and I do not take this blessing lightly.
Once I received my calling, I initially thought I was to minister, preach, and spread the Gospel of Christ. I have come to learn it meant so much more than just that. My journey has not been easy, as I have experienced storms in life that have only made me stronger and strengthened my relationship with God. Every storm God brought me through was a testimony to my calling and Life's Christian work as a Minister.
Through CLI, I have not only developed knowledge and skills to assist me in becoming a better and more knowledgeable Minister, but it has also taught me that my role does not have to be contained to ministering but also to Life Coaching.
While studying ministry, the Lord led me to Life Coach Ministry. Helping others has always been a passion of mine, and this ministry allows me to help other Christians with life struggles. I now realize why friends and family felt so comfortable talking to me about issues they were dealing with. I thank God for making that connection, as this is something I so strongly believe in - Christians helping other Christians to continue their walk with the Lord. What a blessing!
Life Coach Ministry not only gives me an opportunity to Minister but also to help other Christians clear their pathway in their walk with Christ.
I am currently taking classes with Christian Leaders Institute to further my walk with God in both Ministry and Life Coach Ministry as well. The Lord has continued to bless me in so many ways, and I am so grateful. I feel this is a great opportunity to learn and strengthen my knowledge of the Bible, in Christ, and my calling.
I was advised by Christian leaders who believed in me that taking classes would be beneficial for me. I prayed and asked God to help and guide me toward the school that would best benefit me.
Christian Leaders Institute is where I was led, and it has proven to be an excellent source.
I feel that ordination into the Ministry not only provides validation but also confidence in leadership to the community.
Currently, Ministering, Preaching the word of the Gospel, Baby Dedications, and Life Coach Ministry have been put in my path. To further my work in Ministry, I will continue taking additional classes, as well as Life Coach Certification with CLI. My training with CLI has truly been a blessing to me. It has provided knowledge, deeper meaning, and a clear understanding of the word of God. Let us continue to pray for each other's Ministry, and may my Life Coach Ministry bring Help, Comfort, and Strength to those in need.
My study interests: I am interested in the study of ministry, life coaching, and mentoring.
My goal is to become a licensed, ordained, commissioned, and certified Life Coach Minister as I intend to minister and help all those whom the Lord leads me to.
Hobbies: I love to encourage others through prayer, the word, and the workings of Jesus. I also enjoy cooking, baking, catering, writing Poetry, and Spoken Word.
Roy's dream is to minister to his community and to maximize his gifts for ministry. God laid on his heart this scripture from Micah 6:8, "He has shown you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God."
Roy was born the seventh of eight children in Wilson County North Carolina and was raised by a single parent (mother) who shared her faith in God with him and my five surviving siblings. His mother would share her Christian belief with all of her children in a non-threating way regardless of her living conditions, whether on top of the mountain or down in the valley she maintained consistency in her faith-walk.
Roy's walk with God has faced many challenges. Though the grace of God he is now a parent of a college-age son. Roy was divorced many years ago, but through the grace of God, he has maintained a gracefilled relationship with the ex wife. They maintain a strong friendship/co-parenting partnership in raising their son.
Roy is employed as a youth and young adult specialist/coordinator. He assists young people with best practices regarding employment and educational pathway opportunities to enhance their personal and professional development.
Roy has been ordained as a deacon minister and serves under Rev. Walter Lucas at Faith Tabernacle Church as Associate Pastor in Worcester, Mass. Roy also serves on the board of directors of Christian Leaders Institute.
