Our hope is to follow the walk of the FIRST CHURCH of BELIEVERS and to walk and live our lives in “THE WAY!” We are a non-denominational, whole Bible believing fellowship. We are trusting our lives and our future in the belief of the ultimate sacrifice for our sins and the resurrection of our savior the Messiah. We believe in One Faith & One God for all. We believe that we are all given the opportunity to open the door of our hearts to God, giving God the opportunity to come inside of us and fully dwell, by this indwelling, we can truly become a new creation through the turning away of our sins and follow the leadership of our Messiah. Yeshua showed us through His actions how we can walk in love, peace and provide UNITY for God’s children.

Peek into the lives of Danica and Monte …

Monte and Dancia met at a traditional church building in 1993. We soon became friends and remained friends for many years until we finally started dating in 2012. June 22nd of 2013 we fulfilled God’s plan and made our union official with a beautiful wedding ceremony. We are a blended family of 12 children. Monte-4, Danica-5 & together we birthed 3. Their ages range from 2 up to 28 years old. We also have been blessed with grandchildren!

By March of 2014, less than a year after marriage we found ourselves separated and living in separate homes for 3 long years. We reunited our home in 2017 and became one household again. Ever since our reunification, we have faithfully worked on our marriage and have continued to trust in God for his strength and His love to fill our hearts and our home. These challenges have become the strength of our ministry.

The Lord tells us during our weakest moments he is the strongest. Our marriage has helped highlight our weaknesses so we can become stronger through God. This strength leads us to our God given ability to help others grow and heal. During these past 11 years we have made a complete flip in our parenting techniques and the way we choose to communicate and relate to each other, our children and those we encounter.

In our lifetime, God’s strength has saved us from addictions, unhealthy relationship choices, deliverance from spiritual warfare, a possible divorce and more. Due to the Lord helping us to overcome and turn away from our sinful nature and walk as the new creations he predestined us to be, we decided in 2023, to move forward in the commandment of the great commission and commit to building God’s Kingdom with our dedication to United Souls.

Prior to this dedication, we have provided Bible studies, addictions support, pregnancy, marriage and parenting support, outreach services in our local community through community gatherings and family oriented events.

Danica enjoys sharing the HOPE the Bible provides wherever she goes. She really enjoys sharing the love she has for God and how that pours into the love and acceptance she has for everyone. She has the daily opportunity to do this as an Illinois licensed Realtor®, through the weekly homeschool events her and the 2 youngest children attend and every building she walks into. She enjoys leading the weekly ladies Bible study which meets online and locally at United Souls.

We look forward to helping you feel the love of God through the encouragement provided here at United Souls. May the Lord be with you and protect you. May HIs peace be with you always.

Please let us know how we can pray for you TODAY!

Getting to Know Us

We are Henry and Pam Reyenga, married since 1983. We have five children and sixteen grandchildren. Both of us are graduates of Dordt College. Henry was a graduate of Calvin Seminary in 1987. Henry was ordained in the Christian Reformed Church in 1988 and with the Christian Leaders Alliance since 2014. Together we planted four churches and pastored one existing church. In 2001, the vision of Christian Leaders was born, and we founded this ministry, formally recognized as a religious non-profit in 2005. In 2012, we left employment as a church minister and now minister as a fellowship soul center minister in a bi-vocational voluntary calling.

Our Coming to Christ and Calling to Ministry:

We have walked with God since our early youth. Since first courting in the early 1980s, we discerned God calling us to ministry.

Our marriage passage was:

Luke 6:37-38  Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive and you will be forgiven. Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”

After our marriage, we grew through the mentorship of many notable pastors and teachers. In our first year of marriage, one of those teachers, Rhea Zandee, introduced Pam to the Victorious Life in Christ. This daily abiding Life in Christ was foundational to set us on a path of daily abiding and victory in Christ as a called couple in ministry. This perspective grounded us through life’s journey and fueled ongoing growth into maturity as Christians over sin and Satanic attack.

We then enjoyed decades of influential mentors who spoke into our lives to foster more growth and ministry! Praise God!

Our Calling to this Soul Center

Inspired by a victorious life connection in Jesus Christ, we minister to those in our lives as time permits. We are grateful that the Christian Leaders Alliance has called and equipped us to minister at this fellowship soul center.

So as volunteer ministers, we minister to our community. We are also members of Harborside Christian Church, and we invite people to attend Harborside Christian Church.

Together, we are interested in helping people walk in a victorious life in Jesus Christ. We believe that the souls of men and women are hungry for a spiritual connection with God, and that relationship is found in Jesus Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit.

Who We Serve:

While we are busy serving at Christian Leaders Ministries, we love to minister to those God brings into our lives in our condo village, golf course connections, and through serendipitous meetings.

Often, we are called to minister to those connected to the Christian Leaders Ministries.

Our Ministry:

We enjoy raising ministers! Henry is a ministry training professor at Christian Leaders College and Institute in many areas of ministry, including People Smart for Ministry, Pastoral Care and Marriage, Church, and Ministry. He has also taught in many mini-courses. We have taught mini-courses together. Recently, we completed a four-credit college course called “Sex Education and Conversations.”

We share a passion for sharing the faith with those who do not know Jesus Christ or are exploring the Christian faith. Henry enjoys ministering to individuals and families he meets at his golf clubs.

Souls Involved: 25-50

We minister through prayer, Bible study leadership, mentoring, and hospitality. We minister to family members. Further, we have invited many families to Harborside Christian Church, and many have started coming. We have done marriage counseling and post-divorce counseling. Henry has counseled men in accountability ways. Henry also is one of the Bible study leaders at a local Bible study.

>>>

In addition, Christian Leaders Church was launched on January 5, 2025; designed to strengthen and equip Christian leaders and their families. Held locally in Largo, Florida, and online via Zoom, this service will be a worship service and a pivotal gathering for ordinations and commissioning ceremonies through the Christian Leaders Alliance and Soul Centers.

WISE HEARTS AGING and CARGIVER SUPPORT MINISTRY Providing comfort and training for older adults and their caregivers. This is a resource for families and caregivers of older adults, responding to the need for insight, spiritual sensitivity, skills and understanding among those who are aging.

Getting better acquainted

I’m Jerry Essex, living in Jenison Michigan.  I am married to the young lady I met in undergraduate school, Phyllis, and we have kept our commitment to each other for 59 years. I thank God every day for the blessing of loving and caring for Phyllis since she has suffered three strokes. We are closer than ever, and I am fully aware of how God brings us through deep waters to learn more and be shaped to become His servant for others. In addition, we provided elder care for my mother and my in-law parents during their declining years. Later in my professional career I provided personalized training for assisted living, nursing home and other professional providers.

As your Ordained Chaplain I can serve as your

  • Support person where I’m needed
    • private homes
    • assisted living facilities
    • nursing homes
    • extended family members most anywhere
  • Wedding officiant
  • Pre-wedding consultation or counseling
  • Funeral officiant
  • Funeral and committal service planning
  • Home visits for older adults
  • Hospital visits

On-site Training Services

As your resource person,

  • Nurses
  • CNAs
  • Hospice staff
  • Social workers
  • In-home support professionals

and others can count on my extensive experience to share practical resources and skills for effectively helping older adults in their care.

Ministry in the lives of older adults and their caregivers

I love finding encouragement for older adults and their caregivers in the Bible. Of course, there are many references I could share here; but here are some examples of the comfort our souls can find.

Psalms 131:2 But I have stilled and quieted my soul…

In the New Testament we find more evidence of how God provides for peace such as Jesus and the Soul.

Matthew 11:28-30 – “Come to me, all you that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls…

During more than 40 years of my career, much of my experience included managing and teaching in mental health programs, finally working for about a decade in the field of gerontology, teaching caregivers to work effectively with older adults. The highlights of my work are in teaching groups and individuals how to engage others with respect, honesty, empathy, and communication skills to show care and understanding.  Jesus taught us to be known by how we love one another, and this was a primary guiding  mantra for my teaching and helping years.
