Reginald Bryant - Senior Pastor

BIO:  Reginald, born in Portsmouth Virginia but raised in Richmond Virginia, by his very firm dad, now deceased and loving mother attests he would not have had it any other way. Reginald believes that the hands of the Lord have always been upon him but since his salvation, he truly knows if it had not been for the his parents and the Lord's plan upon his life, he would not have gotten through or be here today to honor his mother, Bernice Bryant, while giving his heavenly Father all the glory.
Before Reginald began his spiritual journey, he graduated from John F. Kennedy High School in Richmond, and then served from 1970 to 1974 in the Air Force where he diligently worked on fighter planes. Still seeking the challenge of working with his hands, replicating Jesus' craft, Reginald then became a carpenter and after 25 years of carpentry, Reginald retired from GES in Las Vegas, Nevada.
In the year of 1973, Reginald met his help meet, Antinita Logan and married her the same year. In 2013, they will celebrate 40 years of marriage. In 1974, Reginald and Antinita both gave their lives to the Lord at All Saints Pentecostal Church, in Richmond Virginia, where Elder Robert Tapper is called their Pastor. There they both were baptized in the name of Jesus and were filled with the Holy Spirit. All Saints Pentecostal Church is where Reginald knew he was a living tree planted and would grow in the Word of God. Reginald heard the Spirit of the Lord call him to ministry. Shortly after hearing the call, was the confirming word of Jeremiah 1:5, Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.
In 1979, Mr. and Mrs. Reginald Bryant moved to Las Vegas where they sought Christian fellowship with Golden Valley Apostolic Church pastored by Elder Charles Gamble. The Bryant's' then started the first phase of Living Faith Assembly in their home and the location of Third and Charleston Boulevard before co-pastoring with River of Life Ministries. River of Life Ministries is where Reginald Bryant was ordained as Pastor Reginald Bryant in March of 1997 by Pastor Amos and Pastor Shirley Mestas.
In 1999, Pastor Reginald and First Lady Antinita Bryant began the second phase of Living Faith Assembly. The ultimate purpose is to "Love God and Glorify Him thereby". It is a spirit-led, non-denominational church that is structured to teach the love of God while reaching souls and helping them learn of His love, His attributes and ultimately His Word. Pastor Bryant believes in the spiritual diet that consists of prayer, fasting, fellowship and the Word of God is the most important regimen all Christians need to exercise in order to be victorious in Christ Jesus.
Pastor Bryant is not only gifted in loving God's people, he is gifted and anointed to teach God's people. Pastor Bryant has successfully prepared, outlined, written and presented several classes that aid in the education and help for a Christian's life. His ordained ministers, leadership, students and congregation can affirm his love for God the Father as well as Jesus Christ his Lord and Savior and The Holy Spirit as his gentle teacher and guide to all God has for him to receive and give others.
Pastor Bryant confesses his love for family, the house of God, the Word of God, the people of God and the miraculous beauty God has shown him since before his submission to the Lord. Being placed in many plights, Pastor Bryant has experienced and seen the move of God and favors Romans 8:28, And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. His personal witness of God's sovereignty allows Pastor Bryant to deeply love God even more.  Pastor Bryant's greatest blessing and favorite thing in life as a Christian is being used by God solely for God's Purpose so that God may receive all the Glory.
