About Me

Hello and welcome to my page. The most important thing about me is that God is the joy and the strength of my life. It is in Him that I live, move and have my being. Ministry is my passion. God has allowed me to minister to people of diversed backgrounds. God has also gifted me in the area of working with singles (whether it be one on one or in a group setting). Today we live in a society that frowns on sexual purity. Dare to be different! It will be well worth it. If you would like to know more about my ministry, please feel free to visit www.powerpurposepurity.org.I am a member of the Church of the Advent Church of God in Christ where my father, Dr. Yd Thoroughgood, is the pastor. We are a Bible teaching and believing church where souls are saved, bodies are healed, and relationships are mended. If you're ever in the Chesapeake area (in VA) please check us out: 1097 Bells Mill Road Chesapeake, VA 23322...you won't regret it.
