Guest(s) Appearing on this Episode | ||
Bishop Shirley Holloway Bishop Dr. Shirley Holloway is a native of the State of New York. As a young child, Bishop Holloway spent years in the church, being taught the Word of God. At the age of fourteen, she asked Christ to come into her life as her personal Savior. It was at that time that Bishop Holloway was saved and filled with the Spirit of God. When she was seventeen, Bishop Holloway preached her first public message, and from that day on has been serving the Lord. She and her family settled in the suburbs of Maryland after Bishop Holloway secured a promising career with the U.S. Postal Service. Bishop Shirley Holloway could have lived a comfortable and peaceful life, yet knowing that just miles away were hundreds of men and women who did not have such comforts-some of whom were homeless, addicted to drugs and alcohol, or victims of domestic violence and street crime - she could not rest. Using her resources and whatever time she had between work shifts, she ventured into one of the most crime-ridden, devastated areas of the District of Columbia. Responding to her heart’s call to serve those in need, Bishop Holloway’s ministry developed into the House Help/City of Hope, a faith-based ministry providing assistance to families with children, single men and women, and single parents and children who need help making their lives whole. The ministry also provides basic necessities such as food, clothing, shelter, and medical care. House of Help/City of Hope offers Bible Study, spiritual guidance, career counseling, WDFA meetings, parenting classes and life skills to allow residents to return to society as whole productive Citizens. House of Help/City of Hope has reached over five thousand individuals since its inception in 1997 “Striving to be God’s Humble Servant” is Bishop Holloway’s signature quotation. She is a dedicated mother of two. She is the founder and overseer of Victory Temple Church of Christ and presiding prelate of Mount Olive Assembly. Bishop Holloway is a renowned speaker, both nationally and internationally. Click Here to Visit the Website |
