Pastor Benjie
Pastor Benjie Dukes began his Christian walk when he was saved on August 13, 1971 at the age of 12. He married his lovely wife Linda on July 30, 1983 and they have three beautiful girls, Tamara, Kendall, and Maggie.
Pastor Dukes worked in several churches in many different capacities until he was called to preach on April 19, 1992. He was ordained into the Ministry on January 23, 1994 and served as an Associate/Youth Pastor at a local Baptist Church until August 2001 when God spoke to his heart and told him to leave that church. God did not reveal where he wanted him to go at the time. He visited and preached in many churches in the surrounding area until God led him and his family to join Faith in March of 2004.
Pastor Dukes was added to the staff at Faith in a bi-vocational capacity as the Shut-in Pastor on January 2, 2005. Pastor Dukes is responsible for visiting and ministering to the temporarily and permanently shut-in members of the church as well as performing other ministerial duties at the church. Pastor Dukes says, “God has me where he wants me”.
