Rev. Ronnie L. Wolford & Wife Gladys
 Greetings   in  Jesus   name,  I'm  Rev.  Ronnie  L. Wolford, founder and
pastor  of  The  Pentecostal  Tabernacle Church. I'm a Oneness  Apostolic,
Tongue  Talking,  Holiness   believing   preacher,  that's  been  baptized  in  
the   wonderful   name  of  Jesus Christ   and   filled   with  his  Holy  Ghost,
with  the evidence of speaking in Other Tongues Called into the ministry in
February  of  1979  while  in membership at  the Mission For Christ Church
located  at Thacker, WV under Eugene Gilbert, pastor, who  is now  passed
away.  I  left  the Thacker church and went to the Faith Mission  Church  at
McCarr,   Ky   in   1986   under   Berton Baker,   pastor,  who  also  is  now
deceased.  When  pastor  Baker  passed  away, I took pastor ship, and was
there  for  two   years   and  was  lead  of  the  Lord to  go  to Matewan WV
and  establish  a  new   work.  I   then  moved  to  Matewan, WV  in May of
1990  and  established  The  Pentecostal   Tabernacle  Church  with  twelve
members,   a   rented building, and a borrowed  PA  system  and  was  very  
thankful  for  what  the  Lord  had  done.  After  being    there  for about six
months,  a church building came open at Edgarton, WV and we  moved  our
church  into  that building. As the Lord continued to bless and we  began  to
grow   in  membership,  we  were  blessed to build a new sanctuary and that
work   was   finished   in   September   of   1998,   we   have  expanded   this
building   twice,   after   establishing   the   Delorme   Christian   School   in
August   of   2001   going   through   2007  for  seven  years,   we  again   in  
December   of  2004 expanded our church building a new entrance,  and  to  
the  Lord  goes  all  the  Glory  for what He has blessed  us  to do. In  Nov.  
2006   we   were   blessed  once  again  to  have our church bricked with an
overhang  and  new  metal  roof  to  match  the  brick. I  have pastored this  
church  for  eighteen years and plan to finish my ministry here as the Lord
would   lead.  To   encourage   those  that read this bit of history of how the
Lord  has  blessed.  We   started   with  twelve members, a rented building,
and  a  borrowed PA system.  From  May  of  1990  to  date  the  Lord  has  
blessed us to build this new church at  a replacement  cost  of $ 500,000.00,
we   are  completely  debt  free,  we have  never  had  to  take  a  mortgage  
out  on   this   church   and  to  God  be  all  the  Glory.   There   is   nothing  
impossible  with  the  Lord  and to them that will believe. Great is the Lord,
and  Greatly  to  be  Praised !!!   We  have since purchased three pieces of
property  to  expand  our  parking lot and to have a nice picnic area and for
that we are thankful.
In Jesus Name
