Bishop Wellington Boone

Wellington Boone was ordained into ministry in 1973, the same year that he married his childhood sweetheart, Katheryn, whom he met in Germany during his high school years. He incorporated Living Word Evangelistic Association in approximately 1983, and later changed the name to Wellington Boone Ministries with the encouragement of his leaders. His first church that is still in existence and under his covering is Manna Christian Fellowship of Richmond, Virginia. It was incorporated in 1985. The Fellowship of International Churches was started in 1994. The founding pastors conferred on Pastor Boone the title of Bishop.
