First Lady Leslie Johnson
has been a devout Christian since early childhood. She was
married to the Pastor and Founder of New Life Church in December
2007.
Devoted to the vision of the
ministry, she assists her husband with a variety of duties to
assure that his God-given mandate is carried out. She has the
same emphasis in ministering as her husband and Pastor, which is
incorporating all people into the present and coming Kingdom of
God; with a strong emphasis on teaching, praying, facilitating and
coordinating seminars.
First Lady Leslie Johnson is the
founder and director of “Daughters
of the King”, a Christian Mentoring Ministry
for Girls (ages 6-18) that was founded in 2003 and birthed in
2004. When she reads Psalm 78:1-8 a passion raises up inside
her. She passionately encourages and supports the Daughters of
the King to fulfill the purpose of God in their lives. Her
teachings inspire and challenge the young ladies to develop a
strong relationship with God, each other and with their
families. The Daughters of the King are being equipped to
effectively respond to the burdens and dreams that God has
placed in their hearts.
She is also director of Women in
“Pursuit of God”, the women’s ministry of New Life Church.
In this ministry she aims to equip the Women of God for the work
of service by helping them to gain a firm foundation in the
faith - in the Word of God, in relationship with God and in the
practice of a life lived for God. This ministry challenges each
woman to seek maximum effectiveness in their service to God and
to serve with excellence.
First Lady Johnson is a humble
servant with an unwavering commitment to declare the whole
counsel of God. She has the heart of a worshiper and is
dedicated to effectual and fervent prayer. Her highest
motivation and all-encompassing purpose is to honor and glorify
the Father and find favor in his sight.
