Meet Our Pastor

 

 

Apostle Carolyn L. Hicks is a native of South Carolina. She is the 9th out of 12 Children of the late Roscoe and Claries Bennett, who is 81 years old of Hope Mills, North Carolina. After moving to Brooklyn, New York in 1963 she received Christ into her life under the late Apostle Arturo Skinner, as a teenager. There she grew under the mantle witnessing signs, wonders and miracles. It was during these years of growth that the impartation of the apostolic anointing was deposited into her life. In 1982 the Lord gave her a vision for the ministry of Deliverance Jesus Is Coming Victory Center, Inc. (DJICVC) while under the leadership of Bishop James H. Everette.   In 1986 she relocated to Hope Mills, North Carolina to fulfill ministry work for the LORD. Upon the leading of the LORD in 1992 she was released to begin the ministry of DJICVC.

Apostle Hicks is married to Walter Hicks, Jr. They have been married for over 35 years. They are proud to be the parents of five lovely children, Michele Denise, Walter "Chevy" III, Andre Vaughan, Angelicia Gabriella, and Dominique Shante. There family have grown to include one daughter-in-law, Lynn and two sons-in-laws, LJ Merritt and David McNeill. They are the proud grandparents of five grandchildren, Christian, Cameron, Lamark, Noel and Nevaeh.

Apostle Hicks s the Founder and Pastor of DJICVC in Hope Mills, and Deliverance Victory Center, Lumberton, North Carolina.  She is also the International Founder and Overseer of Churches in South Carolina, North Carolina, Florida, New Jersey, New York, USA ;  London, England, Tanzania and Uganda, East Africa as well as in South America. Apostle Hicks is very instrumental in "stirring up" Outreach Ministries and Churches in bringing their vision to pass.

In January of 2002, the Deliverance Victory Bible School, which is aimed at equipping the Body of Christ with understanding the divine purpose of God for our lives was opened.   Apostle Hicks' main concern is the 22 Million "SOULS" that the LORD has promised the ministry of Deliverance would reach with the gospel.  She has allowed the LORD to use her in Revivals throughout the United States,  Women's Seminars in Fair Banks, Alaska; Raeford, North Carolina; Women's Healing Clinic, Hope Mills, North Carolina.  Health Fairs for Minorities, Fayetteville, North Carolina; Black Symposium for Family Strengthening, Fayetteville, North Carolina; Youth Outreach Ministries, Fayetteville; Charlotte North Carolina, London, England;  Health Forums for Health Awareness, Fayetteville, North Carolina, and Revivals all over the World. 

Concerned about children and communities around the world, Apostle Hicks has founded Agape Kingdom Community Development International, Inc. (AKCDI) for the purpose to build houses for orphan children and families. The concern is not only to change people spiritually, but naturally in showing them an avenue of change. "And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues. They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover." Mark 16:15-18. "For I an not ashamed of the gospel of Christ for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth..." Roman 1:16 "Also I heard the voice of the LORD saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, here am I; send me." Isaiah 6:8
