About Joe Pasinski
I was born in Buffalo, NY and raised in a small farm town until I was about 12 years old. When my parents divorced, my mother, four of my siblings, and I moved to a suburb of Buffalo, NY. I attended three different colleges as I searched for significance in everything this world had to offer. At age 22, I surrendered my life to Jesus and began a new life in Christ.
While many people were focused on the revival in Brownsville, Florida, we were having a similar move of God in Buffalo, NY. I still remember the day the Lord lifted depression off of me forever. I remember the first time I saw a person healed. I remember being touched by true revelation worship while seeing people groaning and crying at the altars in repentance. I remember the night, alone in my room at Buffalo State College when I was filled with the Holy Spirit and began speaking in tongues for the first time.
My life was marked in those early years and I met my wife very soon after that. We have five children ranging from 22 years old down to my youngest at 15.

At three years of age, the Lord touched me as I was gazing at a manger scene and a small wreath during the Christmas season. I felt an overwhelming sensation of love which I now recognize as the presence of God.
I was touched by God in the Catholic Church at a very young age. I was overwhelmed by the presence of God as I entered the small Church in the country village where I lived. I was enamored at the images of Jesus on the cross. Because it was such a small town, a Catholic Nun would drive a van to the grade schools and teach religion. We packed into this small van each week. I'll always remember that woman's love for Jesus
At age seven, we moved to the city of Buffalo for a couple of years while my parents would separate. During this separation, we were introduced to The Tabernacle in Orchard Park. This was my first experience with a Pentecostal church and I was marked for life by the Holy Spirit. From that point on, I chased God looking for the same presence we experienced there.
At age 22, I returned from college to visit the Full Gospel Tabernacle where I experienced revelation worship. It was during that summer that I finally turned my back on the world and surrendered my life to Christ. That move of God lasted for about two years.
At age 25, The Holy Spirit woke me up in the middle of the night to a worship song playing on the radio. It was then I received my calling to preach the Gospel.
I had reached a high point of success in my life with business and personal growth. I encountered the Lord again during a service and everything changed. I felt the Holy Spirit tell me it was now or never to fulfill the call I was created for. Within 12 months, the decision was made to leave everything we knew, and dedicate our remaining years to serving the Lord and preaching His Gospel.
