She was born and raised in Trenton New Jersey. Bryant was educated under the Parochial School System, where she was first introduced to religion and the bible. As she grew, she began attending church services at various churches with family members, who had already come to know Jesus as their personal savior.

In 1982, at the age of 14, she began attending Bible Way Temple of Deliverance with her Aunt, under the presiding pastor, Bishop William A. Clark. It was here Bryant came to understand the necessity of salvation. In 1986, Bryant met her husband. They married a year later. In 1987, Bryant joined Bible Way alongside her (now) husband Andre Bryant. Together, they have raised four wonderful children, all of whom they are very proud. She loves her family and works very hard to be someone they can be proud of.

In 1992, Bryant has had the wonderful opportunity to travel abroad with her husband as he served our country in the USAF for over 35 years, living and/or visiting countries like England, Germany, Azores, and Belgium and engulfing herself in their cultures while working ministry. While stationed abroad, her husband felt a strong desire to move his family to the south. In 1996, Bryant returned state side with her family and now lives in Warner Robins Georgia. In 1997, Bryant and her family joined New Life Worship Center and were all baptized under the presiding pastor, Dr. J.C. Wheeler, whom remains her pastor, friend and spiritual father to this day.

In July 2005, at the age of 37, Bryant became an ordained minister under the hand of God and her Pastor, Dr J.C. Wheeler of New Life Worship Center of Jesus Christ, in Warner Robins Georgia. She continued to study and learn under her pastor’s watchful eye for several years until a prophetic word was released that she was destined for the office of a Pastor. After much prayer and meditation, she accepted the calling on her life to become a Pastor.

In 2009, Bryant was told to make full proof of her ministry calling and she did just that. As a minister, Bryant began holding personal, one-on-one and group bible studies. It was through these gathering many souls were saved and added to the family of God. Under the direction of her pastor, she began holding Church Services thus giving birth to a New Life branch in Macon GA. On December 31, 2012, Bryant was ordained a Pastor and also made the presiding pastor of New Life Worship Center in Macon Georgia.

BELIEFS

On April of 1992, at the age of 24, during a revival service at Bible Way Temple of Deliverance in Hamilton New Jersey, under the residing Pastor, Apostle A. Phillip Parrot, Bryant received the baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongue. From that day, she knew, her life would never be the same.

Bryant believes in the oneness of God and confesses Jesus is God and Lord over all. She is a strong advocate for eternal salvation that came by the blood of Jesus and that if you want to receive eternal life, you must be born again. Bryant believes in the 2 ordinances that remain in the church which are Water Baptism and the receiving of the Lord’s Table.

Bryant is a student of the scripture. Her favorite scripture can be found in Romans 8:35-37 “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, for thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us.” The ministry, the people, the love, the acceptance, the unity and the fellowship of the Spirit will always be in the church to show people that if you seek and follow God’s way, you will inherit something far greater and much more valuable than money. You receive salvation through Jesus Christ and become a part of the family of God. An heir of God and joint heir with Christ Jesus.
